Location: London (Hybrid Working)
Salary: To £75,000 + bens
Our client successfully blends research, insight, and strategy to create opportunities that will have a genuine impact. They seek a corporate reputation expert to join their fast-growing venture. A key client of theirs is in the fascinating and alluring world of football, and it's thought that a devotee of this ever-evolving area of sport could add a unique slant to this account. The focus of the role will be to take the lead on quant-led brand, comms, and reputation projects that feed into marketing decisions and inform the client on how their strategies are playing out with fans, grassroots communities, as well as regulators and government. They are doing some interesting and innovative work into the halo effect that their output can create and how some of the more contentious developments in the game are perceived.
