Senior Brand Manager

Wizard launched into DTC this spring, with CVS and Walmart this summer and a pipeline of SKUs, channels, and partnerships behind it. We have sharp creative, a breakthrough product, and a category all to ourselves. What we need is the person who makes all of it land — in every channel, in every quarter, with every customer touchpoint firing in sync.This is a brand quarterback role. You won't own social or experiential or influencer as separate functions. You'll own the brand — and make sure social, influencer, experiential, and retail marketing all ladder up to the same story, launch on the same calendar, and reinforce each other instead of fighting for airtime.What you'll ownbrand management, end to endOwn the brand calendar.
