Branding

Branding in the fashion and creative industries is all about shaping a brand’s unique identity, its story, values, and personality, and making sure it connects with the right audience. This includes everything from designing logos, packaging, and campaigns to building the emotional experience customers have with a brand. Branding works alongside marketing but focuses more on defining what a brand stands for, while marketing communicates that vision to drive sales and engagement.

As you gain experience, you can move into roles like Brand Manager or Creative Director, overseeing strategy and ensuring all brand touchpoints align. If you’re interested in creativity, storytelling, and business, branding offers an exciting career path where you can help shape how people see and feel about the brands they love.

Examples of roles within branding:
  • Brand Ambassador
  • Brand Management Intern
  • Advertising Coordinator
  • Graphic Designer
  • Social Media Assistant
  • Web Designer
