Head of Brand - Maternity Cover

Shape the next chapter of three distinctive travel brands with a meaningful place in UK travel culture. This is an opportunity to combine long-term brand building with commercial impact, creating stronger, more distinctive brands and experiences for our guests.

As our Head of Brand, your mission is to set the vision and strategic direction for three established travel brands, ensuring they remain distinctive, relevant and positioned for sustainable growth.

You’ll lead our Brand & Campaigns function, own our portfolio media strategy and drive the rollout of our new Guest Value Proposition. Working across the business, you’ll connect customer insight, creativity and long-term brand building with commercial priorities and performance.

Who we’re looking for

You’ll thrive in this role if you’re a strategic brand leader who can see the bigger picture while maintaining the focus and discipline needed to turn strategy into action. You put customers at the heart of your decisions, set a high creative bar and are comfortable bringing together diverse teams and perspectives around a clear direction.

We offer a versatile position in a strong professional and social environment - one you’ll have the opportunity to influence and help shape. You’ll be part of an international company that invests in the future, and join a dynamic, fast-paced department with skilled and committed colleagues who support each other.

For this role in particular, you’ll have a rare opportunity to shape the next chapter of three established travel brands, make them more distinctive and help build sustainable growth.

We’re a people-first business - and we know that our success starts with our teams. Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll enjoy:

• Senior brand leadership experience within a complex consumer organisation, ideally within travel, leisure or hospitality.
• A strong track record of building distinctive brands and leading proposition or customer-experience change.
• Experience leading integrated campaigns and working with creative, media, insight and research partners.
• A solid understanding of brand health, campaign effectiveness and customer insight, with the ability to turn evidence into strategic choices.
• Strong executive influence and the ability to align senior stakeholders around priorities and decisions.
• Proven people leadership and capability-building experience, with an inclusive and collaborative leadership style.
• A focused, proactive approach to getting things done, including the ability to lead calmly and visibly through change.

Our mission is clear - to create amazing holidays with Europe’s widest choice of holiday homes.

With more than 110,000 properties across Europe, we are the largest managed vacation rentals business in the region. Our ambition is not only to be the biggest, but the best provider of holiday homes in Europe.

As travel continues to evolve, we are focused on what comes next. We will keep strengthening our relationships with guests and homeowners, continuously improving the way we work, and delivering strong performance. By making things simpler and smarter, we are building a business that is ready for what’s next - powered by proud, passionate and inclusive people.
