BCBC rebrand project open to students and young people

BCBC Rebrand 2021

The Club believes that this is a great time to be in our industry and that we have so many opportunities yet to explore. BCBC last underwent a rebrand over ten years ago and the Club feels that it is extremely important to review branding periodically. With this in mind, we are looking for a keen and inspiring candidate who can give the BCBC brand a new, fresh, and exciting look, that appeals to all ages of our industry and keeps the values of the club at heart.

‘A Breath of Fresh Air’ is the theme chosen by the current Chair, Dr Karen Wonnacott, for the 2022 conference in January, and the committee would look at launching the rebrand at the event to the conference delegates. We feel that the Conference will be the perfect place to launch our fresh look and demonstrate that we are a progressive and forward-thinking Club. Our aim is to make the complexities of breeding and genetics accessible to all and to provide practical advice to positively influence the uptake of new technologies.

What we are asking the candidate to deliver to BCBC:

This is an exciting opportunity for a student or young person (aged 26 or under) working in, or with a keen interest in marketing, with a flair for design, to explore what BCBC has to offer. It would also be attractive to anyone who has an interest in cattle breeding and the advancement of genetics, although this is not essential.

We would prefer that if a stylised cow was suggested, please avoid a specific breed as we would not want to show preference towards one breed over another.

The Prize

BCBC will award the successful candidate with:

The successful candidate will be able to use the research, design and execution of the rebrand within their portfolio/CV and course project, as appropriate.
