For a well-known and traditional brand in the field of blasting instruments, we are looking for a brand manager (m/w/d) at the next possible time, which develops the brand with enthusiasm, market proximity and own ideas. The position combines brand management, product and assortment management, marketing as well as direct exchange with manufacturers, specialist trades, musicians and other actors in the blast instrument scene.

Use your communication strength and feel for the market and the music community to advance the brand sustainably.

You take responsibility for the marketing concerns and the continuous development of an established blower brand. Together with the international manufacturer, you agree to the product range and act as an important contact person in the daily business. You develop marketing and sales campaigns for music retailing (B2B) as well as for musicians and other end customers (B2C) and accompany their implementation. You design and coordinate marketing measures for print, online and social media channels. You continuously observe the market, competition and trends and developments in blasting instruments. You establish and maintain contacts with musicians, artists, influencers, media, associations, organizations and event partners. Your market knowledge and feedback from the scene will help you to further develop assortment, products and marketing activities. With high autonomy and your own ideas, you actively contribute to further expanding the positioning and success of the brand.

You have a commercial training, an economic study or a comparable professional background. Your enthusiasm for wind instruments as well as your thorough knowledge of the corresponding music and market scene is particularly important. Ideally, you will bring experience from the musical instrument industry, brand or product management, marketing, sales or music specialist trade. An alternative professional background can also be interesting if you know the brass instrument scene very well and have the necessary commercial and communicative understanding. You are especially pleased to actively engage in people, establish contacts and develop long-term networks. Your own initiative and independent work are of course for you. At the same time, you bring openness to new ideas and desire for design. You combine creativity and brand understanding with a good sense of market and competitive developments. You are ready for business trips (about 8 times a year) and trade fair visits Good knowledge of English and a safe handling of MS Office complete your profile. For us not only the classic CV counts: if you come from the world of blasting instruments, know the industry and its actors and want to develop professionally towards brand management, we are also looking forward to sharing with you.
