Senior Brand Manager

About the job

Title: Senior Brand Manager Location: Bengaluru (Onsite | No Remote) Reporting to: AVP – Brand Experience: 8–10 years Compensation- Upto 30 LPA Brand Overview The brand is rethinking a legacy home category that has seen very little real innovation for decades. Rather than approaching the market as a conventional consumer brand, the organisation is building from first principles combining deep engineering, real-world operating experience, and a sharp understanding of how modern Indian homes function. Backed by long-term institutional investors known for building category-defining consumer businesses, the brand has strong conviction in solving fundamental problems rather than superficial differentiation. Before entering consumer homes, the team built and deployed tens of thousands of appliances in commercial environments shaping a DNA rooted in reliability, safety, and performance. The organisation is now scaling its consumer presence, particularly offline, with ambitions to build new categories, not copy existing ones. The culture is hands-on, ownership-led, and outcome-focused. People work close to decisions, are trusted with responsibility, and are encouraged to build work that compounds over time. Role Overview As the brand enters its next phase of growth, there is a need for a senior brand leader who can balance long-term brand building with near-term business impact. This role exists for someone who wants to shape the brand’s voice, narrative, and presence at scale across products, campaigns, retail, and culture inside a company that is still being built, not maintained. As Senior Brand Manager, you will be responsible for shaping and executing the brand strategy across touchpoints, ensuring consistency, clarity, and impact. You will work closely with internal teams and external partners to deliver brand-led growth, while acting as the internal custodian of the brand.
