What are brand ambassadors?  

Broadly speaking, brand ambassadors work with companies to increase awareness of their brand and products.  

Brand ambassadors can encompass a wide variety of job roles and responsibilities, covering both full-time and part-time employment. Therefore, the day-to-day responsibilities of a brand ambassador will always vary depending on the hiring organisation, however they typically require similar personality traits and skills. You’ll need to be passionate about the product and brand, but also about people and building relationships. 

 

Is a brand ambassador a social media influencer?  

In recent years, the title of ‘brand ambassador’ has been commandeered by social media influencers. In a social media context, brand ambassadors are paid to promote a brand, product or service.  

They’re often selected by brands on the back of the size of their following and engagement rates. Social media brand ambassador roles typically aren’t paid per hour and don’t offer any of the job security you’d find with a traditional brand ambassador role. 

 

What are the main job roles as a brand ambassador?  

The main job roles for brand ambassadors can vary wildly depending on the type of organisation that is hiring. Brand ambassador roles can include:

Merchandising brand ambassador 

• Merchandising brand ambassadors usually have to travel to multiple stores in order to promote products. Your work may include setting up promotional fixtures and POS displays. You’ll be responsible for ensuring that retail staff are properly educated about your product, and you can also expect customer engagement and staff product training to form part of your day-to-day activities.   

Sales brand ambassador
