About Heidi
Heidi was born to make it easy for more and more people to discover the power of the mountains. We burst onto the ski holiday market in 2018 (formally known as Ski Zoom) and have seen exponential growth.
The company came from a desire to fix the lack of flexibility in the winter ski market. We help skiers and mountain lovers discover resorts that are hidden gems alongside the classics, and our clever tech is helping them to do it in a way that suits them best. We’re a youthful, challenger brand, with an awesome culture, and we’re shaking up a very traditional ski/mountain holiday industry.
Looking to the future, we have huge ambitions for growth. In 2024 we grew by 64% and expect to grow even more in 2025. Having come 63rd in the Times top 100 fastest growing UK companies, and shortly after securing £5.6 million investment, we are in a prime position to achieve our goals. But key to that is also growing the Heidi team with even more brilliant people than we have now. So we are looking for someone who will be fundamental to the success of our vision and is excited to help us drive that forward.
Our Marketing Team
Our Marketing team is growing to support the rapid growth of Heidi. We’re split into 3 core areas; lookers, bookers and rebookers. The lookers team are responsible for making Heidi the most considered ski brand and for growing our earned traffic. The bookers team are responsible for maximising the conversion of customers looking for a ski trip. The rebookers team will ensure we double the revenue coming from existing customers by rewarding their loyalty.
The Trading Manager will report directly to the CMO, working closely with the Head of Performance Media, Head of Product, Supply and Finance to ensure that we find the right balance between supply and demand and between revenue and margin.
What You’ll Be Doing….

Analysing short and long term performance trends, to find the optimum balance between marketing spend, conversion rate, revenue and profit margin
Consequently, you will be driving our trading meetings, with insight, recommendations and solutions. You will make informed decisions that help us hit our ambitious goals.
Defining our pricing strategy. You will work with supply and finance to determine our margin structure for our holidays, across off peak, peak and promotional time periods. You will define our promotional calendar and be the lead on these events, helping the business plan for excellent execution.

What We’re Looking For From You……

You are the first hire in the area, so you must have a passion for owning and building. You won’t be building from scratch, but you’ll need to find a balance between getting some improvements live in MVP form as well as setting us up for the future.
Strong attention to detail. You understand that trends aren’t always obvious at first and you have a skill at diagnosing.
You must be obsessed with data and excellent at communicating insight. The work is analytical and being comfortable interpreting and managing complex data analysis tasks is a must.
