Can you cut it as a Christies Direct brand ambassador?

Leading dog grooming supplier Christies Direct is looking to appoint its newest brand ambassadors to represent the company in the global pet industry.

 

Christies Direct has created different roles to ensure there are a variety of options for groomers to get involved in educating their audience and growing the global grooming community. The company is searching for an Elite Brand Ambassador, a Digital Content Creator and Chief Product Reviewers.

 

Colin Christie, CEO of Christies Direct, has been an industry leader in animal grooming for more than 30 years. He said: “We are looking for brand ambassadors that shine in all areas of content creation and live performance. The successful applicants will be exciting, skilled groomers, with excellent product knowledge and a passion for pet grooming and our brands.”

 

The Elite Brand Ambassador role has been created for innovative and creative grooming experts across the globe. The company initially plans to appoint a groomer for this role who is based in the UK or Ireland but will be expanding this into other territories. The role requires expert knowledge of products and techniques, great presentation skills, confidence on and off camera and the ability to produce excellent written content.

 

This is a great opportunity for those who enjoy travel, networking, giving product reviews, and creating content. The role also includes supporting new product development at Christies Direct.

 

The Christies Direct Brand Ambassador 2021, Kayla Harrison (pictured), will be helping to judge applicants. She added: “Don’t be afraid to show off your technical prowess and highlight your creativity and any areas of innovation. As groomers we are passionate about our creativity and creating content that stands out. Share this in your application and it will definitely set you apart from other applicants.” 

Christies Direct is also looking for a digitally savvy groomer to come into its brand ambassador team as a Christies Direct Creator.  The successful applicant will be an influential groomer with a great online following who is visually minded and confident in content creation.

 

The company also hopes to collaborate with passionate groomers to provide product reviews. This role would be ideal for busy groomers who may not have the time to commit to one of the other roles but who are passionate, opinionated, and articulate.

 

In stage one groomers are asked to share their experience, knowledge, and the reasons why they think they can cut it as a Christies Direct Brand Ambassador, alongside a brief introduction video where they share their favourite Groom Professional product. 

 

The judging panel – Colin Christie (CEO), Matt McCallum (Marketing Manager) and Kayla Harrison (Brand Ambassador 2021) – will review the applications and shortlist the top candidates to move on to Stage 2.
