Branded Content Manager

We are looking for a Branded Content Manager to join our Commercial Team in The South of England.

The South’s next Branded Content Manager will be an outstanding creative individual who loves problem solving through the creation of ideas and is comfortable sharing their ideas with businesses and the wider Bauer teams.

Working in the Audio arm (sponsorships and promotions) of Bauer Media across the Hits and Greatest Hits Radio brands in the South, including working with the programming and commercial teams at Wave 105, one of the UK’s largest regional commercial radio stations, they will have a passion for bringing ideas to life in an audio format, working alongside our Digital and Creative teams.

They must be highly organised and can strictly adhere to timelines and work within the process, with an excellent eye for detail.  This is a hybrid role, you will be expected to attend client meetings, work from home and have anchor days in our Fareham office.

A Branded Content Manager is driven by ideas, they are that person who has some of their best ideas when out walking, running, paddleboarding, down the pub, in the park, in the shower, in their sleep! Someone who joins dots between briefs, unrelated conversations, through reading articles, watching a TV show and translates those dots into an exciting and engaging creative idea.

A Branded Content Manager is as much a team player as they are working autonomously, they are experienced in achieving and overachieving targets whilst retaining their creative focus and flair when the pressure is on.

Our next Branded Content Manager is an excellent communicator, dealing with both internal stakeholders (Sales teams, programming, digital, commercial creative teams and production) and external clients, offering a high level of customer service.
