Its a role with plenty of variety and visibility. You'll work with teams across Marketing, Analytics and Technology, alongside agencies, Google and affiliate partners, giving you the opportunity to influence how we evolve our digital marketing capabilities and deliver genuine commercial impact.
What you'll do
You'll set the strategic direction for Paid Search and Affiliate Marketing, making sure our investment delivers against our customer and commercial goals. You'll own and manage significant budgets, using data and measurement to understand what's working, where we can improve and where the next opportunity lies. Across Paid Search, you'll help us make smarter use of first-party data, automation and machine learning, while evolving areas such as incrementality testing and marketing measurement. For Affiliates, you'll develop the strategy and marketing plan, build strong relationships with our key partners and agencies, and make sure our activity continues to drive incremental customers and sales. You'll also look at how our technology, platforms, creative approach and measurement can evolve to deliver even better results. People leadership is a big part of this role too. You'll lead and develop our in-house Paid Search and Affiliate experts, creating an environment where the team can grow their expertise, challenge thinking and continuously improve how we work.
