  • Monitor trade marketing spend and maintain key promotional systems and retail information.
  • Support customer meetings, range reviews and promotional planning activity, providing updates and coordinating actions.
  • Produce reports, analyse promotional performance and provide insights to support decision-making.
  • Coordinate store visit activity and share updates with publisher and customer-facing teams.
  • Provide day-to-day support to the Retail Promotions Manager across a range of retail marketing initiatives

What we're looking for:

  • Strong relationship-building, communication and persuasion skills.
  • Ability to prioritise workload, manage deadlines and stay organised.
  • Good problem-solving skills and basic negotiation skills.
  • Strong numeracy and attention to detail.
  • Flexibility, adaptability and the ability to work well as part of a team.
  • Good working knowledge of Microsoft Office, including PowerPoint.
  • Experience with MicroStrategy or supply chain processes would be advantageous.
