The opportunity

You will support the development of the UAL brand and its relationship to UAL Colleges, departments and sub-brands within a flexible, coherent and consistent framework. Working across the whole university with a wide variety of stakeholders, you will be a creative and experienced brand marketer with excellent project management skills who will manage our ambitious Identity Development Programme.

The Programme is designed to build a stronger UAL proposition that increases our brand equity, enhances the student, staff and external stakeholder experience, supports our success in a crowded market and protects our good name from exploitation. You will manage the Programme’s internal stakeholders and external suppliers, and, under the direction of the Head of Brand Strategy and Director of Communication and External Affairs, you will deliver various Programme work streams including the development and implementation of UAL and certain College visual identities.

About you

You will have significant experience of managing and developing brand identities, and you will have the ability to drive effective change throughout a large and complex organisation. 

  • Educated to degree level or above.
  • Proven track record of successfully managing brand identity programmes.
  • Experience of managing and delivering key projects in support of brand marketing and communications strategies, as well as managing relationships with externally based design agencies, creative directors and other related suppliers.
  • Experience of managing budgets and assessing return on investment in relation to brand marketing activity.
  • You communicate effectively orally and in writing, adapting messages for a diverse audience in an inclusive and accessible way.
  • You motivate and lead a team effectively, setting clear objectives to manage performance.
  • You plan, prioritise and manage resources effectively to achieve objectives.
  • You suggest practical solutions to new or unique problems.
  • Experience of marketing and branding within a higher education context is desirable but not essential.

In return, University of the Arts London offers generous leave, an attractive pension and a commitment to your continuing personal development and training in an environment that encourages excellence, creativity and diversity. Relocation assistance is available.
