Marketing Executive

Do you thrive on precision, innovation, and making a real impact behind the scenes? If so, this is your chance to step into the action. Join Frontline’s Topps trading team and play a key role in shaping how collectibles reach the market. Supporting the Newstrade Marketing Manager (NMM) and Deputy Newstrade Marketing Manager (DNMM), you’ll help drive the successful management of the Topps collectibles portfolio. You’ll be the engine behind seamless service delivery — owning efficient processes, delivering timely insights through clear reporting, and managing accurate data that our clients can rely on. Just as importantly, you’ll bring a fresh perspective: challenging the status quo, spotting smarter ways of working, and helping evolve Frontline’s service offering for the future. We offer an informal hybrid working model, with a minimum of 8 office days every 4 weeks at our Farringdon office.

What you’ll be doing:

• Produce regular reporting including forecasts, sales, competitor insight, retailer performance/compliance, circulation metrics, and promotional effectiveness.
• Deliver ad hoc reporting and analysis to support Frontline colleagues and Topps stakeholders.
• Maintain accurate product information across internal supply chain systems.
• Support allocation and replenishment by preparing clear, accurate briefs and liaising with the allocation team.
• Keep retail promotional activity, range space, and store lists up to date to ensure accurate supply and replenishment throughout the product lifecycle.
• Communicate key product and promotional information to national accounts and category teams.
• Own and maintain the ROI database, tracking retail costs and revenue performance.
• Build strong relationships with internal teams, Topps contacts, and retailers, including regular store visits.
• Participate in client and internal meetings, capturing actions, risks, opportunities, KPIs, and project updates.

We are looking for people with:

• Proficient in the Microsoft Office suite, particularly Excel, with the ability to manage large data sets.
• Strong logical and analytical problem‑solving skills, with excellent attention to detail.
• Proven ability to work under pressure, meet tight deadlines, and manage efficient processes.
• Effective communicator with strong relationship‑building skills.
• Experience producing clear, informative reports using numerical data from multiple sources.
• Solid understanding of commercial sensitivities and business priorities.
• Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to work collaboratively, understand impact on others, and share best practice.
• Highly adaptable, resilient, and able to cope positively with change.

What’s in it for you:

• We offer a comprehensive benefits package to support your wellbeing and lifestyle, including:
• Contributory pension, including life assurance, and income protection.
• Informal hybrid working arrangements, combining in‑office and remote/home working.
• Additional leave: 2 paid volunteering days per year and family‑friendly policy.
• Wellbeing support, including our Employee Assistance Programme.
• On‑site gym and parking at Stuart House, Peterborough.
• Reward Gateway scheme – Smart Spending App with access to a range of deals and discounts.
• Salary‑sacrifice options including private medical insurance, car scheme, and holiday purchase scheme.
