Jones Knowles Ritchie (JKR) is a branding business, founded in 1990 and proudly independent ever since.
We started out in the world of packaging, but now we’re worldwide—from three founders, to more than 320 of us across the UK and USA. Together, we build and deliver brands across the entire consumer experience.
But even more important than what we do, is why we do it. We’re here to inspire brands and people to be their true selves. To be brave. Be tenacious. And above all, be yourself. Because we believe that’s the only way to truly be distinctive, everywhere.
We are currently looking for a Group Business Director on a maternity cover basis to lead across two of our largest clients in the CPG space.
You'll drive client advocacy through exceptional client relationships and unlock creativity through provocation. Our work with these clients spans the full gamut of brand and through into campaign, so experience of developing holistic brands through multiple touchpoints and full consumer lifecycle is key.
As a GBD you will be the lynchpin of brand centricity, always developing and consistently leveraging a strategic understanding of the client’s business, their brands, and the environment in which they operate to generate new briefs and deliver great work.
Additionally, you will be a font of all knowledge, having a full understanding of the group of client's long term marketing plans and the ability to demonstrate an understanding of how these will translate into design.
Requirements
We are committed to equal employment opportunities regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender, gender identity or expression, or veteran status. We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace.
