Senior Manager, Brand Planner (Brand Strategist) in London

This role sits within MOO’s Product design and Brand team, a group focused on defining what we offer, how it shows up in the world, and how we tell that story in a way that is clear, compelling, and distinctive. The team brings together MOO’s products, brand, and storytelling—shaping the connection between what makes MOO special and what our customers need. This role works across the business, partnering closely with Creative, Growth, Product Marketing and CRM teams. You will act as a connector between thinking and execution, ensuring that ideas are strategically grounded, creatively strong, and consistently expressed across every touchpoint.

The Role

You will take MOO’s business and brand strategy and translate it into clear, inspiring direction across everything we do. At the heart of the role is orchestrating MOO’s annual marketing and communications plan across all channels: organic, paid media, CRM, content and beyond. Ensuring everything is cohesive, distinctive, and aligned to our brand. You will turn strategy into powerful, insight-driven briefs for the Creative team, helping shape work that connects what’s special about MOO with what our customers truly need. Alongside this, you will lead a small number of high-impact brand initiatives each year, ensuring they are strategically sharp, creatively strong, and delivered to a high standard.

• Proven ability to turn strategy into joined‑up, multi‑channel plans
• Strong experience writing briefs that lead to high‑quality creative work
• Comfortable working with both qualitative insight and quantitative data
