Reporting to the Head of Marketing UK, you’ll be accountable for strengthening brand equity, driving customer traffic into stores, and maximising conversion through innovative, commercially‑led retail strategies. You’ll champion strategic influence and operational excellence, leveraging global frameworks while shaping market‑specific initiatives that deliver measurable impact.

- Define and deliver high‑impact retail activation strategies that elevate brand relevance and drive measurable outcomes across footfall, conversion and sales growth.

- Lead cross‑functional collaboration across Brand Experience, Retail Leadership, Store Operations, Merchandising, Paid Media, Organic Social, Loyalty and PR, ensuring clear ownership and integrated execution.
- Set and communicate a clear UK retail channel vision and operating model each season, ensuring strategies are simple to execute, consistently delivered in store and adaptable to local market dynamics.

- 6+ years’ experience in retail, channel or activation‑led marketing, ideally within apparel, lifestyle, consumer goods, FMCG or other high‑volume consumer brands.
- Proven experience delivering physical retail activations that drive traffic, conversion and sales.
- A strong understanding of the UK retail landscape, with the ability to “read” the market and stay culturally connected to consumers.
- A creative approach with a commercial mindset, focused on delivering activations that convert interest into shoppers.
- Strong strategic, analytical, influencing and stakeholder‑management skills.
- Confidence working end‑to‑end, from strategy through execution, including managing agencies and external partners where needed.
