2 days ago

Queenstown Otago, New Zealand RealNZ Full time

Ready to shape unforgettable brands and lead bold marketing strategies? We're on the lookout for a Brand & Marketing Manager to lead the team working across our Tourism portfolio at RealNZ.

This is your chance to step into a leadership role within a purpose-led organisation, bringing our mission to life by connecting people with New Zealand's most unique places and protecting them for future generations.

If you're a strategic storyteller, a creative thinker, and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Lead integrated marketing strategies to strengthen brand awareness and inspire customer engagement.
  • Partner with the GM Marketing to drive alignment across RealNZ.
  • Mentor and empower a team of talented marketers to deliver their best work.
  • Own and evolve the RealNZ brand, celebrating our heritage and guardianship.
  • Use insights and data to fuel campaign performance and decision making.
  • Build meaningful partnerships to elevate our brand presence and impact.

What You'll Bring

  • 6+ years of marketing experience, including at least 2 years in leadership.
  • A proven track record in brand and campaign management in a dynamic environment.
  • Creative flair and a strategic mindset, with a love for storytelling.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • Passion for conservation, tourism, and creating extraordinary experiences.
  • A relevant tertiary qualification is a bonus, but not essential.

What's in it for you?

  • Be part of a values-driven team committed to excellence, guardianship, and authenticity.
  • Lead the creative direction of some of New Zealand's most iconic brands.
  • Enjoy awesome benefits including free RealNZ adventures for you and a friend – think Doubtful Sound, Milford Sound, rafting, glowworm caves and more. A chance to explore Aotearoa while doing meaningful work.

Real People, Real Places, Real Experiences. Welcome To Real.
When's the best time to join the Real whānau? Now's good.

We're the conservation business that's enabled by tourism. We're helping the world, one guest at a time, fall in love with conservation. We're inspiring people to leave their places in better conditions than when they found them. We channel a guest-centric approach that fuels our genuine promise to deliver Aotearoa's most unforgettable experiences.

It's our workplace environment that makes careers at RealNZ more exciting than the regular job. Working for Real could mean you're based anywhere between a secluded island, a scenic fiord, and a snow-capped maunga. Our people, places, and workdays are a great and diverse mixture. It keeps us on our toes and adds value and passion to our work.

At RealNZ, we're committed to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion. Guided by our values of Pono (Keep it real) and He waka eke noa (We're all in this together), we embrace and celebrate the unique perspectives and experiences that make our team stronger. Everyone is welcome here.
