Senior Brand Manager
About the role
Digital Zone is a fast-growing digital payments and voucher platform, active in Iraq and expanding into Saudi Arabia and the UAE. We operate across gaming, telco, streaming, e-commerce, and live events — and we’re building the marketing team to match our ambitions.
We’re looking for a Senior Brand Manager to own the brand — its positioning, voice, and consistency — across every market and touchpoint. You’ll work closely with the Head of Creative and the wider marketing team to make sure every campaign, launch, and piece of content strengthens the brand, and you’ll act as the guardian of brand quality as Digital Zone scales into new markets.

Brand strategy & positioning
Own and evolve Digital Zone’s brand positioning, tone of voice, and visual identity guidelines
Translate business and product priorities into clear brand strategy and messaging frameworks
Lead brand research and tracking to understand awareness, perception, and equity across markets
Ensure brand consistency across Iraq, KSA, and UAE, adapting positioning for local market nuances
Campaign & content oversight
Partner with the Creative Lead to brief and review campaign concepts, video, and key visuals
Act as brand custodian on all major campaigns, sign-off on brand fit before launch
Collaborate with Growth, Product, and Partnerships to ensure brand consistency across performance and lifecycle channels
Support 360-degree campaign planning, from big-brand moments to always-on content
Brand guidelines & governance
Build, maintain, and roll out brand guidelines across internal teams and external agencies
Train and support internal teams and agencies on correct brand application
Own brand asset libraries and ensure consistent use across all sister brands (Rahal, Ticket Zone, eSIM)

Monitor competitor and category trends across Iraq, KSA, and UAE to inform brand decisions
Bring consumer and cultural insight into campaign and brand planning
