Job profile

Employer Branding Manager (m/f/d)

Employer branding managers hold important positions in the constantly changing world of human resources, since the employer branding is already one of the most important instruments of personnel marketing.

This corporate strategy tool uses a variety of marketing approaches to present one’s own company with a brandthat stands out from other companies and, at best, occupies unique subject areas. Companies and organisations should now create the basis to bring their own employer brand into the main recruitment channels and to present themselves as an attractive employer. A well thought-out strategy is necessary to build and maintain a strong employer brand that successfully attracts and retains talent and skilled workers for a company.

And thus employer branding managers are becoming increasingly important. An employer branding manager is responsible for developing, managing and implementing the employer branding strategy across all channels. This includes working with marketing, communications and recruiting teams to ensure that the employer brand is consistently and effectively represented both internally and externally.

The aim is to create a positive perception of the company, which ultimately leads to better hiring results and thus to successful recruitment.

What are the responsibilities in employer branding management?

Employer branding managers are responsible for the strategic development and implementation of the employer brand. They are the link between the internal and external perspectives of a company. Therefore, they not only have a deep understanding of the organisation and culture of the company, but are also always up to date on current trends in the labour market.

As an employer brand manager, it is important to closely work with the management. Because he or she needs their backing to be successful. Employers are increasingly confronted with reviews on Google or kununu and they need to learn how to deal with them. In order to prevent negative reviews, employer branding managers need to be proactive and take steps to ensure that their own employees are content and committed.

This can include regular surveys, organising focus groups or events to reinforce team building and communication. Through measures like these, employer branding managers can help create a positive corporate culture that encourages employees to express positive opinions about the company online.

Another essential task of employer branding managers is marketing.

Here the following measures and objectives must be pursued:

  • Strategic development of the external image
  • Creation or support of the company’s recruitment and career pages
  • Creation of suitable campaigns to support recruiting
  • Set-up and maintenance of recruiting profiles on job boards
  • Administration and management of employer evaluation portals
  • Participation in relevant recruiting and job fairs
  • Development and establishment of (local) career fairs together with other companies in the industry
