Full-Time Position, Edinburgh or Nearby Candidates Only

Do you love chocolate? Are you a conscious consumer — perhaps even plant-based? Are you a real multitasker who loves a challenge?

In a market saturated with products with free from credentials, Fellow Creatures cut through the noise by producing outstanding chocolate with second-to-none texture and taste as well as an endorphin-inducing brand identity and tone of voice. We are looking for a driven, mission-aligned individual to join our dynamically growing team in our Edinburgh-based office as a Marketing Manager.

About the Fellow Creatures ✨🍫✨🌱✨
Fellow Creatures make indulgent creamy plant-based milk-style and white chocolate you’ve ever tasted. Made using premium quality smooth Swiss chocolate, their bars are made from ethically sourced ingredients.

Created by young entrepreneur Zsolt Stefkovics: after becoming vegan, he wanted to recreate chocolates with creaminess and fun snacks we all remember from childhood.

With eye-catching packaging designs and a deliciously creamy texture, the products are far superior to the existing ‘free from’ brands on the market.

At Fellow Creatures where no two days are the same, you will be responsible for a wide array of marketing and PR activities; raising brand awareness, growing our cult following and increasing engagement across platforms.

Essentially, you’ll contribute to and develop integrated marketing campaigns to promote our portfolio of products.
