You will play a key part in shaping and executing CRM strategies by working closely with multiple stakeholders across Commercial, Marketing, and Data.

This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to a fast‑growing, dynamic environment where your strategic thinking and stakeholder management skills will directly influence customer engagement, retention and business growth.

• Develop and manage the CRM campaign roadmap, working with key stakeholders across the Commercial team to align CRM plans with broader business goals.
• Manage multiple priorities and deadlines effectively while maintaining clear and proactive communication with internal teams and external stakeholders.

• Solid understanding of CRM and retention concepts and how they integrate within broader marketing plans.
• Familiarity with major CRM platforms such as Braze, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, or Adobe Campaign is a plus, though hands‑on experience is not mandatory.
• Comfortable working in campaign planning and ideation rather than hands‑on technical execution.
• Passionate about customer retention and delivering engaging, relevant customer communications.
• Strong interpersonal and influencing skills across functions.
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail and an understanding of the importance of quality.
• Cares about and takes pride in their outputs.
