Senior Marketing Manager

New Today

Korean fried chicken. Korean BBQ. Sushi and a QSR brand being built for franchise scale. Welcome to Maguro Group. We are a multi-brand hospitality and retail group operating across London and Manchester, with a portfolio of concepts that are bold, fast-moving and designed to stand out. We are now hiring a Senior Marketing Manager to take full ownership of marketing - with a clear priority: building Bunsik into a franchise-ready, scalable brand. This is not just about campaigns. This is about building a brand system that works at scale. THE HONEST VERSION Marketing has been reactive and largely outsourced. That is changing now. This role is about building the function properly - with structure, clarity and accountability. If you want to define how a brand scales through franchise, build a function from the ground up and grow into a Head of Marketing position - this is it. THE ROLE You will be the most senior marketer in the business. No layers above you. No dilution. You will own Bunsik end to end - but more importantly, you will shape how it scales through franchise. That means building more than marketing activity. It means building a repeatable, consistent and commercially effective brand model that franchise partners can execute without losing what makes Bunsik distinct. Alongside that, you will support marketing across the wider group - driving campaigns, activations and brand moments across Bullgogi, Maguro, Moida, Pochawa Grill and Gogi. Bunsik is the priority. Franchise is the focus. BUNSIK
