The Real Job (No Corporate Jargon)
Assistant Manager Marketing Operations. You’re the behind-the-scenes wizard who makes brands come alive in the real world.
- A new juice drops? You’re the one putting up neon stalls in Dolmen Mall.
- Cricket season? You lock the sponsorship, design the fan zone, and make sure the logo is on every selfie.
- Agency says “budget issue”? You negotiate, lock KPIs, and make them deliver gold.
- Boss wants a report at 8 AM? You’ve already sent it at 2 AM with photos, footfall, and ROI.
You don’t just plan — you execute, chase, fix, and win.
What You’ll Actually Do
- Brainstorm with the Sr. Manager: “Let’s do a pop-up beach café for our new soda!”
- Run the show: Hire agencies, lock contracts, set KPIs, scream when they’re late.
- Events & Sponsorships: From PSL fan zones to food festivals — you own it.
- Support the segment teams: They want a campus activation? You make it happen in 48 hours.
- Go regional: Fly to Lahore, supervise a concert activation, come back with selfies and data.
- Procurement ninja: Get the best rates, chase invoices, keep finance happy.
- Surveys & intel: Send mystery shoppers, track competitor moves, report what’s hot.
- Budget boss: Stretch every rupee — no wastage, max impact.
Your Daily Wins
- 10,000+ footfall at your weekend activation
- Agency delivered 20% under budget (because you negotiated like a pro)
- Sponsorship ROI: 5x
- Sr. Manager says: “This is the best event we’ve ever done.”
- Zero delays, zero drama
What You Need
- 5+ years making brands pop in real life (FMCG, telco, beverages? Perfect)
- MBA or Bachelor’s — doesn’t matter in what, just finish it
- Agency management: You’ve fired one, hired three, and made them cry (in a good way)
- Events: You’ve run 50+ activations — big, small, chaotic, flawless
- Can survive Karachi traffic, 3 AM calls, and finance audits
- Live in Karachi — no “I’ll relocate” drama
Bonus: If you’ve activated for Coke, Pepsi, Jazz, or foodpanda — we’re already impressed.
What You Get
- Salary: PKR 150,000 – 220,000/month (based on your event portfolio)
- Bonus: Up to 40% if you deliver magic
- Fuel + Phone: PKR 20K–25K/month
- Total Take-Home: PKR 2.5L – 4L+/month when you’re killing it
- Perks: Health insurance, learning budget, event travel, fast promotions
