Lucky Saint - Customer Marketing Executive (On-Trade)
Reporting to: Customer Marketing Lead
The Opportunity
We are looking for a Customer Marketing Exec to join the team at Lucky Saint as we continue our mission to become the defining alcohol-free beer. You will be responsible for planning and executing on & off-trade activation to drive awareness, trial and sales of our alcohol-free beer range alongside key internal and external stakeholders.
This is a key role for someone ambitious, commercially minded, and excited by growth. You will connect brand and customer, working hand in hand with the Marketing and Sales teams to bring Lucky Saint to life across pubs, bars, and retail.
A Day in the Life
You’ll kick off the week by coming into the office for our all-company Monday Morning Meeting (MMM). You’ll then head downstairs to our pub for a coffee and a catch-up with your line manager, where you’ll run through the big updates from the previous week; your 3 key focusses for the coming week and work through any current blockers to your work. After that, you may join a pitching call with one of our sales team and their customer to present some activation ideas you’ve come up with.
After lunch, you’ll get on with writing a design brief for a point of sale (POS) toolkit for our upcoming summer campaign. Once that’s done, you’ll head out into trade with one of the sales execs to meet the team of a new site that’s opened and started pouring Lucky Saint to make sure it’s tasting good, they’ve got the right POS visibility assets on display and that the team feel educated, inspired and confident selling Lucky Saint.
