Retail Marketing Manager

The Retail Marketing Manager sits within the Sales & Marketing team, responsible for the planning, coordination and delivery of Healthspan's retail store and local marketing activity. This is a hands‑on role spanning the Guernsey shop and UK retail store estate, requiring strong organisational skills, commercial awareness and the ability to manage multiple priorities across locations.

For the Guernsey shop, the role owns the annual marketing plan, local promotions, campaign coordination and performance reporting, working closely with the shop manager and internal teams to ensure activity is delivered, reviewed and continuously improved. For Healthspan's UK retail stores, the role plays an important part in launch and ongoing activation: managing local launch plans, coordinating store‑specific activity, overseeing community marketing and local media, and ensuring store teams have the information and materials needed to bring campaigns to life.

A core part of the remit is acting as the key marketing point of contact for store managers, translating central plans into clear, practical actions for store teams. This requires strong communication, attention to detail and the confidence to work independently with stakeholders across marketing, design, CRM, commercial planning and retail operations. The role also contributes to wider campaign planning, ensuring retail and local marketing priorities are represented in trading plans, product launches, promotional activity and customer engagement campaigns.

Based in Guernsey, with regular UK travel expected to support store launches, local activation, store visits, agency meetings and campaign planning.

They will thrive in a fast‑paced environment as Healthspan expands its retail store presence, and will bring the ownership, judgement and stakeholder skills needed to make retail marketing a genuine driver of store performance.
