P&G invented the concept of brand and brand management. Over the years, we've remained on the cutting edge of marketing, always finding new and leading-edge ways of reaching consumers.

The Brand Management function produces the majority of the company's General Managers and future CEO's. P&G Brand Management is about growing our Brands, Business and People.They are accountable for all aspects of the brand. They develop strategies based around the “WHO, WHAT, HOW" framework. In Brand Management, you will identify the target demographic (WHO), define what product/messaging best meets her needs (WHAT) in order to determine what vehicle (HOW) is most effective in delivering the message to consumers. The HOW is becoming increasingly digital in nature, and our brand managers are expected to be savvy in the latest digital advertising tools in addition to traditional advertising vehicles. Over the years, we've remained consistently on the cutting edge of marketing, always finding new and exciting ways of reaching consumers.

P&G's marketing philosophy can be summed up in the simple phrase: "Receptive messages in receptive moments." We believe we have two moments to touch consumers: when they choose the product in the store and when they use it at home – what we call the "two moments of choice". The first moment is what we focus on seriously when marketing products. But we also need to reach consumers in over-saturated markets. To narrow in and strengthen advertising effectiveness, P&G employs another principle, "What, Who, How." As a P&G marketer, you will pinpoint a product's image (what) and target demographic (who) in order to determine what vehicle (how) is most effective in relaying their message to consumers.

You will begin your career as an Assistant Brand Manager. You will be a key contributor to the brand's strategic choices, product and commercial innovations, holistic communication plans, and brand executions across all media and consumer touch points. From Day One, you will be assigned full responsibility for your brand and business results.

To be successful in this role, you will need strong passion and strength in consumer, customer and market understanding and insights to develop creative and innovative solutions that allow us to win in the marketplace.
