Position Overview We’re growing Millie Moon in the US and looking for a Marketing Manager to lead some of the brand’s biggest growth levers: Target and around 30 more US retailers, licensing, training pants, brand fame moments and expecting mums. You’ll own the plan, the budget and the results, and you’ll wake up every day asking one question: how do we grow Millie Moon in the US? You’re consumer-obsessed, commercially sharp and at your best when you’re turning real parent insight into sell-through. About ZURU ZURU is a reimagination company. We look for categories that have stood still, then we build next-generation products and brands that set the new standard. ZURU Toys is reimagining play. ZURU Edge is reinventing everyday consumer brands. Rhodes Pet Science is reimagining pet science. ZURU Tech is leading the next building revolution. ZURU started in 2003 with two brothers from New Zealand, and we’re still founder-owned and operated today. Since then we’ve become the world’s second-biggest privately held toy company, and nearly half of all Gen Y and Gen Z households with kids in the US own a ZURU product. Today we’re 5,000 people in 34 offices, selling into more than 150 markets, backed by over 100 acres of fully automated manufacturing. And we’re only getting started.
