Some brands spend years trying to find their purpose. This one started with it.
Already listed nationwide with one of the UK's biggest retailers, this fast-growing challenger is proving that healthy convenience doesn't have to mean compromise. Backed by an ambitious leadership team and with significant growth ahead, it's now looking for a Senior Brand Lead to help write the next chapter.
This isn't a business where you'll inherit layers of process or spend months seeking approvals. You'll work directly with the founders, own the brand, influence product innovation, shape campaigns, launch new products and play a genuine role in growing one of the UK's most exciting food brands.
The Role
This is a broad, high-impact position for someone who enjoys building rather than maintaining. One day you might be shaping the launch of a new product, the next briefing creative partners, reviewing consumer insight, planning retailer activations or refining the brand story. You'll be equally comfortable thinking strategically and rolling your sleeves up to make things happen.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll have real autonomy, plenty of responsibility and the opportunity to leave your fingerprints on every part of the brand.
We're looking for someone who...
- Has 7+ years' brand marketing experience within FMCG, food or consumer brands.
- Knows how to build brands that people genuinely care about—not just run campaigns.
- Has launched products and understands how brand, innovation and commercial performance work together.
- Is commercially minded and enjoys using insight and data to drive growth.
- Thrives in fast-moving businesses where initiative matters more than hierarchy.
- Loves food, understands consumers and gets excited by challenger brands.

Why join?
You'll be joining at a defining stage of the journey, with the opportunity to shape strategy, influence innovation and build a brand with genuine purpose.
The package reflects the importance of the role, offering a competitive salary, performance-related bonus, private medical insurance and a meaningful equity stake—giving you the opportunity to share directly in the success you help create.
If you're looking for another corporate marketing role, this probably isn't it. If you want to build a brand that's changing the way people eat—and be rewarded for the impact you make—we'd love to hear from you.
