Your key impact areas:

 

• Digital Product Launches: Assist in the end-to-end execution of new product launches, turning concepts into high-performing online campaigns.

 

• Data-Driven Insights: Analyze digital business data and consumer metrics to identify trends and optimize our online marketing strategies.

 

• E-Commerce & Project Management: Coordinate digital projects and contribute fresh ideas to enhance our e-commerce platforms and user journeys.

• Market Intelligence: Stay ahead of the curve by researching digital FMCG trends and exploring how digital channels are reshaping consumer habits.

 

What We’re Looking For

 

You are a digital-native "right hand" to help drive our online presence. You will be deeply involved in the technical execution of our digital strategy, managing our CRM ecosystem, and acting as a bridge between the company and our external agencies.

Your Core Responsibilities

• Website & Search: Assist in managing website updates (CMS), monitoring SEO performance, and coordinating SEM/PPC campaigns to ensure brand consistency and performance.

 

• CRM & Lifecycle Marketing: Take the lead on executing email marketing tracks, setting up automation workflows, and building acquisition campaigns that actually convert.

 

• Agency Supervision: Act as a primary point of contact for our digital agencies. You will help review their deliverables, ensure deadlines are met, and hold them accountable to our KPIs.

 

• Data & Optimization: Track campaign performance and provide actionable insights. We don’t just want reports; we want suggestions on how to improve.

 

Required Qualifications:

 

• Education: Currently pursuing or recently graduated with a degree (Bachelor or Master) in Marketing, Business Administration, Advertising, or a related field.

 

• Experience: At least one previous internship or significant project experience in Marketing (ideally Consumer Goods), involving product launches or promotional campaigns.

 

• Digital Savvy: You understand the basics of SEO/SEM and are comfortable navigating CMS platforms (WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, etc.).

 

• Analytical Mindset: Comfortable working with numbers, spreadsheets, and marketing metrics to tell a story.

 

• Soft Skills: One of the most important skills: an entrepreneurial "self-starter" attitude with the ability to collaborate effectively in a cross-cultural environment.
