Job Description
Great FMCG marketing is a balancing act. It is equal parts creativity and commercial instinct, brand storytelling and sales data. It is knowing when to push a product into the spotlight and when to let consumer behavior guide the next move. Mindfield Resources, a leading Dubai-based executive search firm with deep roots in the consumer goods sector, is looking for an Assistant Marketing Manager to join a prominent FMCG organization in Dubai. This is a role for a marketer who understands that a strong brand is built on both imagination and evidence.
You will support the marketing lead in developing and executing strategies that drive brand growth, market share, and consumer engagement across the UAE. Your work will span campaign development, product launches, agency management, and market analysis. You will collaborate with sales, trade marketing, and supply chain teams to ensure that every campaign is grounded in commercial reality. You will also track competitor activity, monitor consumer trends, and use data to refine messaging and channel strategies. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment where your ideas are tested against real-world results, this role will suit you.
The ideal candidate has a minimum of five years of FMCG marketing experience, with mandatory UAE market exposure. You understand the nuances of the region's retail landscape, from modern trade to traditional channels, and you have a proven ability to manage agencies and cross-functional stakeholders. You are analytical, creative, and comfortable working with data to inform decisions. A bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, or a related field is required. This is a full-time, on-site position based in Dubai.
Salary:
AED 18,000 – 20,000 per month

In your cover letter, describe a campaign or product launch you led in the UAE market, including the objective, your approach, and the measurable results you achieved. If you have experience managing agency relationships or working with trade marketing teams, highlight that experience, as it will demonstrate your ability to navigate the commercial side of FMCG marketing. Finally, confirm your UAE market experience prominently, as it is a mandatory requirement for this position.
