KEY PURPOSE OF THE ROLE
Bremont Watch Company is looking to strengthen its marketing team by adding a Retail Marketing Manager, for its owned stores (“Boutiques”) globally.

Our Boutiques across the world are a business-critical estate of truly premium touchpoints, personifying our brand and strongly influencing how clients feel about it.
