Brand Development Assistant (graduate or entry level role)

Basic salary GBP23,000 + benefits

Based in Marden, Kent/hybrid

A great opportunity has arisen due to growth, with an organisation who supply vehicle parts to trade and fleet customers throughout Europe. If you're looking to start a career which is varied, you get to communicate with teams internationally as well as in the UK, learn about new product developments and learn from an established team, this could be a great role for you! This role would suit a recent graduate or someone who has limited work experience looking for a role where they can be trained.

The Role:

You'll be working as part of the brand support team who's function is to link the sales team and customers with the rest of the business to ensure everyone has a good awareness of new products and a place to ask questions about existing products too.
There is quite a lot of documentation to work with and some presentations to help put together, working with the brand support specialist rather than on your own initially.
You'll be comparing sales data across different products and markets looking for trends and where demand lies.
You'll attend regular meetings with sales teams (mostly virtually but as time goes on some of this could be face to face in the UK and Europe), to understand product challenges, collate information and note down topics that need investigation.
Part of the role is helping to compile guides to help the sales team when discussing new product lines with their customers. It includes product specifics, features and benefits compared to other products and this helps them overcome any customer objections or concerns.
Once you're more experienced you'll take some calls from colleagues to advise on product features or put them in contact with the right people in the business to help.
This is definitely an entry level role for someone looking to join a multi national company where full on the job training is provided.
The role will be based from the Marden office for some of the week but it's likely there will be a degree of hybrid home working available too.The Person:

We're looking for someone who has good communication skills, both verbal and written and strong spelling and grammar.
You'll have some excel skills but be willing to build on these and have an interest in analysing date for trends as you'll be tracking the performance of car brands in different regions.
Experience writing presentations would be useful, either PowerPoint or Prezi but this can be taught.
An interest or experience in the automotive sector would be really useful although it's not essential.
Someone keen to learn, looking for a long term caerer and happy communicating with people all over the world would be a brilliant fit for the roleThe Package:

The basic salary is GBP23,000
22 days holiday + bank holidays, rising with length of service
Onsite parking and canteen when at the office
Annual bonus from 2023
Great entry level role for someone starting their career
