I’m brand manager and strategist with 5 years of agency experience working on a broad range of clients (no single vertical of specialization). What type of brand side role makes sense for someone like me? Where do you think my skills translate best? (brand development and campaign strategy, account management, relationship management). Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Brand marketing manager is the most obvious fit since there’s elements of all skills you’ve listed involved. I’ve worked on the client side for various brands big and small though, and unless it’s a large company with a fully built out marketing arm where Brand Marketing is an actual department (like a Nike for instance) — marketing is usually a more integrated function. Basically meaning you’d be responsible for a broader set of marketing responsibilities than your current skill set suggests.

Thanks so much! Really appreciate the input!

Brand Manager or Marketing Manager type roles. Potentially Digital Marketing Manager or similar, depending on experience and the company.

All great thoughts! Thanks so much for the pointers and detailed response. Super helpful!!
