Emily Heath [#47]: Leveraging a Global Brand to Get Girls Moving
Description
On this week’s episode, I’m joined by Em Heath, Global Brand Director at Rexona, a key player globally in Unilever’s personal care brand portfolio.
Formerly a sponsor of Williams F1, the brand has taken a serious liking to women’s football - partnering with Man City and Chelsea, doing deals with players like Lauren James and Lucy Bronze, as well as playing a key role in activating around marquee properties like the Women’s World Cup and Women’s Euros, as part of Unilever’s broader partnerships with FIFA and UEFA.
We explore this interest in women’s football and the nuances of activating across almost every area of the women’s game, the role that brands can play within women’s sport, and the intricacies of managing a global brand.
