Trade Recruit is proud to be partnering with a forward-thinking, growth-oriented client in the appointment of a Brand Experience Manager — a pivotal new role that reflects the company’s strategic commitment to elevating customer engagement, brand visibility, and experiential impact across all platforms.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced professional with a blend of creativity, commercial awareness, and operational discipline to shape how customers and stakeholders experience the brand — both physically and emotionally — through memorable, high-impact brand-led experiences.
About the Role
As the Brand Experience Manager, you will take full ownership of the design, planning, and execution of innovative and immersive brand experiences. Working closely with the events team, marketing, and senior leadership, you will develop experiences that align with the company’s identity, resonate with target audiences, and strengthen brand loyalty.
This is not just an events role — it’s a brand-building position where strategic thinking, creative execution, and cross-functional collaboration all play a vital part.
Key Responsibilities
* Lead the strategic development and hands-on delivery of events, activations, and campaigns that create emotional and memorable connections with the brand.
* Collaborate with in-house teams to ensure consistency of message, tone, and creative execution across all brand touchpoints.
* Develop end-to-end project plans including concepts, schedules, budgets, resource allocation, and risk management.
* Work closely with marketing, sales, and commercial teams to ensure brand experiences support broader business goals.
* Manage all third-party relationships including agencies, suppliers, venues, and contractors to ensure timely, high-quality delivery.
* Oversee all logistical aspects of event planning — from venue sourcing and AV coordination to catering, staffing, and compliance.
* Monitor and report on budgets, ensuring projects are delivered within financial targets while maintaining premium quality.
* Ensure all health & safety, licensing, and insurance requirements are met in line with company and legal standards.
* Lead post-event evaluations, generating detailed reports that include audience feedback, performance metrics, and recommendations for future improvements.
* Continuously research and implement best practices and trends in experiential marketing and customer engagement.
Candidate Profile
We are seeking a confident, capable, and strategically minded professional with the following:
* Proven experience in brand experience, event management, or experiential marketing
* Strong project management capabilities, with a meticulous attention to detail
* A creative mindset with a passion for storytelling, audience engagement, and building brand affinity
* Excellent stakeholder management and internal communication skills
* Resilience, adaptability, and composure under pressure
* Financial acumen with a strong understanding of budget management and ROI analysis
* A collaborative approach and the ability to inspire and guide cross-functional teams
What’s in It for You?
You’ll be joining a company that genuinely values creativity, innovation, and individual contribution. In return for your experience and commitment, the company offers:
* A competitive salary of £35,000 – £45,000 per month, dependent on experience
* All necessary company equipment provided
* Tailored training and development opportunities to support your career growth
* A vibrant, collaborative team culture with regular company events
* Access to a health and wellbeing programme, offering resources for both professional and personal support
* A modern, high-spec working environment
* Free on-site parking for all employees
* On-site gym access and wellness facilities
* Access to a canteen with subsidised meal options
* Company pension scheme
* Sponsored professional development and qualifications
