Description
If you can walk into a slightly messy brand transition, calm the room, make customers feel heard, and turn “acquisition communications” into something people actually understand, this could be a very good use of your next 12 months. First Focus is growing across New Zealand. We’re now almost 400 people across NZ, Australia and the Philippines, ranked the #1 MSP for 9 years running, and continuing to expand through acquisition. This role will help bring acquired New Zealand brands into the First Focus ecosystem without making everyone feel like they’ve been trapped inside a corporate rebrand PowerPoint.

It’s about helping customers and communities feel informed, respected and confident while things change around them.
