The best brand idea in the world means nothing if it falls flat at the shelf. That's where you come in.

We're working with a global snacking brand that's become a genuine phenomenon — the kind of name that sells out, trends online and pulls a cult following wherever it lands. It's now scaling hard in the UK, backed by one of the biggest food businesses on the planet, with a target of £100m+ in retail sales within five years.

We can't name it yet. We can tell you it's a brand people already love, on a growth journey most people in this industry only dream about.

Why should you care?

Because you'd be the link between the big brand ideas and what a shopper actually sees in the aisle. On a brand growing this fast, landing in the biggest supermarkets in the country, your activation gets seen by millions — and you'll be close enough to the action to see the difference you make. Real ownership, real visibility, and plenty of room to grow as the brand does.

What you'll actually be doing

  • Turning brand and customer plans into activation that actually lands in grocery — in store and online
  • Bringing retail media, in-store displays, POS and promo mechanics to life alongside the account managers
  • Using shopper and category insight to make every bit of activation work harder
  • Managing agencies and POS production — keeping it on time, on budget and on-brand
  • Measuring what worked, being honest about what didn't, and doubling down on the good stuff
  • Working hand in glove with sales, brand and category to keep it all joined up

Who you are

You're part creative, part organiser, all commercial. You love seeing your work out in the real world rather than stuck in a deck. You can juggle a dozen moving parts without dropping any, and detail genuinely matters to you.

Some experience in trade, shopper or customer marketing, category, or a commercial/sales support role sets you up nicely — and any grocery exposure is a real plus. But the right mindset beats the perfect background.

One thing on experience

We value it, we don't worship it. If you've got the commercial head, the organisation and the appetite to make things happen but your CV doesn't tick every single box — apply anyway.
