About Rock Face
Rock Face is one of the fastest-growing men’s toiletries brands in the UK. We’re stocked in all major UK retailers and have built a reputation for doing things differently in a traditionally conservative category.
What sets us apart:
* Bold and disruptive marketing: A desire to run the best content engine with unapologetically real and disruptive content.
* Prestige fragrance at a mass price: Our products are designed with the same fragrance house as Armani, delivering aftershave-quality scent across everyday essentials.
* Innovation with purpose: We’re the first men’s brand to launch a refillable proposition, combining performance, premium fragrance and recyclable packaging.
* A clear point of view: Rock Face exists to elevate men - encouraging them to do 1% better every day, through small, considered choices.
Marketing Function Background
Historically, the brand has been more ‘brand marketing’ focused activating mainly on TV and OOH (billboards). The brand has big D2C ambitions so is putting a lot of investment into creating a content engine. Our goal is to behave more like an entertainment business than an FMCG brand. To accelerate the growth of the business we are building out a high functioning marketing team split into brand marketing and growth marketing (marketing associated with online).
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone who is in the early stages of a marketing career and wants to work in a fast paced and ambitious marketing environment. You will get exposure to both more traditional forms of marketing - shaping brand partnerships and sampling activation and newer forms of marketing - content production and influencer / affiliate management. We are specifically looking for someone with a keen interest in social media and influencers. There will be a huge amount of opportunity to learn, and lots of hands-on experience working with media & PR agencies, influencers, videographers and events.
If successful, you will be joining a team who have experience working for the best FMCG businesses. These cover L’Oreal, Wild, Amazon, Diageo, Higgidy, Ikea, Coke and Beauty Corp to name a few. We are a true scale up so everyone in the team is both a strategist and is willing to get their hands dirty when needed.
Who You Are
* You’re happy to throw yourself into everything, sampling at events or doing cold reach outs to brands.
* Junior in FMCG marketing or events.
* Practical, organised and delivery-focused — you enjoy getting things over the line.
* Comfortable working independently with clear ownership.
* Confident in collaborating with agencies, influencers and external brands.
* Energised by working in a growing, fast-moving scale-up rather than a rigid corporate structure.
* Able to attend the Clapham Junction office 3 days a week
