Brand & Marketing Manager (Maternity cover) Part-time, fixed-term contract
About Us
Brewed On The Edge Of Bath. We create innovative, delicious, modern, award-winning beer that delivers on that ‘glad to be alive’ vibe. We’re on the side of independence, craft, and creativity. We invite everyone into our world with positivity and optimism to break free of the chains and enjoy life.
Who We Are
Our approach to brewing is simple: we want to produce consistently great-tasting beers of all styles, from easy-drinking ales to highly-hopped, high-strength beers, from our core range to our experimental special releases.
We tell the stories, passion and personality that go into our beer. Better ingredients, more flavour, more care. We love what we do and we have fun doing it.
We aim to continue our steady organic growth and build on our reputation by expanding our amazing team who love and understand what we do, who nurture and build lasting and fruitful relationships with customers who we already know, and those that we are yet to meet.
The Role
We are looking for a Brand & Marketing Manager to join the Electric Bear team on a maternity cover basis.
This is a key role within the business, responsible for maintaining and developing our brand, marketing activity and communications while working closely with the Head Brewer, Graphic Designer, and wider brewery team.
You will take ownership of our brand and marketing activity, leading creative projects, coordinating beer launches and bringing our beers and stories to life across every customer touchpoint.
This is a hands-on role in a small, fast-moving brewery where no two days are the same. You will need to be organised, creative and confident managing multiple projects, working with different teams and taking ownership of your work from day one.

- Manage website content, email marketing and other customer-facing platforms.
- Collaborate with production, sales and Taproom teams to bring our beers and stories to life.
- Help develop and grow the Electric Bear brand while maintaining our distinctive tone of voice.
Who You Are
You are someone who loves building brands and telling stories. You enjoy working in a creative environment, but you’re also organised enough to make sure projects get delivered.
You will be comfortable working independently, managing your own workload and collaborating with different teams across the business.
As this is a maternity cover role, we are looking for someone who can hit the ground running, quickly understand our brand, ways of working and priorities, and confidently take ownership of key areas of activity.
You’ll be someone who:
- Takes ownership and gets things done

- Experience managing creative projects and working with designers
- Strong written communication and copywriting skills
- Excellent organisational and project management skills
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
- Experience working independently and taking responsibility for projects
- Experience in craft beer, hospitality, food & drink or a similar industry would be beneficial, but isn’t essential
