About this role
We take play seriously. We’re looking for curious adventurers ready to find their party, fueled by imagination and drive to build what’s never been built before. At Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, you’ll collaborate with passionate teams to reimagine our iconic brands and create experiences that spark joy, connection, and community through the magic of play. This is your chance to shape legendary play that lasts a lifetime.
Ready to shape the future of play? At Hasbro, we entertain and connect generations through storytelling and play. We’re looking for a curious, analytical, and driven Associate Brand Manager to help lead two iconic preschool brands — one entertainment-driven, one an evergreen classic — translating consumer and shopper insight into line plans and products kids ask for by name.
You’ll work alongside designers, engineers, franchise managers, and licensees to bring new play experiences to life across global markets, partnering closely with regional marketing, demand planning, packaging, and sourcing teams. You’ll be the voice of the consumer throughout — using research and competitive analysis to shape strategy and translating data into stories that move the business. The Preschool & Fashion Team works on brands like Peppa, Potato Head, Baby Alive and Furby!
Effective from the date that Hasbro opens its new Boston location, this position will be on-site Tuesday-Thursday at Hasbro's new HQ location in Boston, MA. In the interim, this position will be onsite Tuesday-Thursday at Hasbro's HQ in Pawtucket, RI or at Hasbro's temporary location in Boston, MA.
