ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a sharp, hands-on Brand Manager who can own the Infinity Learn brand end to end — from how we show up on Instagram feed to how were perceived at an on-ground event. This role sits at the intersection of strategy, creativity, and execution. You will shape the brand narrative, drive campaigns across channels, manage agency and vendor partners, and use data to make every rupee work harder.

• Develop and maintain brand guidelines ensuring consistency across teams, agencies, and platforms.
• Build and refresh the brand narrative for different audience segments: students (Grade 1–12), parents, and institutional partners.
• Conduct competitive brand audits and track brand health metrics (aided/unaided recall, NPS, sentiment).

2. Creative & Content Development

• Lead the creative process end to end with agency and internally— from ideation and briefing to review, feedback, and final sign-off on all brand collateral.

• Analyse category trends, enrolment patterns, exam cycles, and seasonal behaviour to time campaigns effectively.
• Translate research findings into actionable briefs for creative, product, and growth teams.

4. Social Media & Community Management

5. Events & On-Ground Activations

• Manage event logistics, vendor coordination, branded collateral, and post-event reporting.

• Capture event content (photos, video, testimonials) for use across marketing channels.

6. CRM & Lifecycle Marketing

• Design and own the CRM communication strategy across email, SMS, WhatsApp, and push notifications.
• Map the user journey (lead → trial → subscription → renewal → referral) and build automated, personalised communication flows for each stage.
• Track CRM metrics (open rates, click rates, conversion, churn) and continuously optimise cadence, copy, and timing.

7. Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work with Product to align launches, feature releases, and in-app messaging with overall brand strategy.
• Partner with Sales and B2B teams to create collateral for institutional outreach (school presentations, partner decks).
