Are you accustomed to working in a fast-paced environment? If this sounds like you, this could be the exciting, new opportunity you have been looking for???

Our internationally award-winning client is currently searching for a Trade Marketing Manager to join their busy and expanding team, based in Buckinghamshire. With at least 3 years' experience in a Trade Marketing role already under your belt, you will have demonstrable experience working closely with a number of key retailers to drive brand growth in your sector. Using your exceptional interpersonal skills, you will have built and maintained relationships with leading retailers to secure a strong and mutually beneficial partnership to increase brand sales of your products. You will have experience working with both offline and online retailers, and be aware of the key challenges of marketing to both.

As Trade Marketing Manager, you will spend the majority of your time meeting with key retail accounts and will be confident communicating and pitching to a number of high profile retailers. Your goal will be to increase the market share and drive sales of the brand, working to understand the challenges currently facing retailers and tailoring innovative solutions to combat these issues. Spending much of your time in retail environments, you will develop an innate understanding of what the consumer is looking for and what are the driving factors in their purchase, and will develop targeted strategies accordingly. This is a broad role that encompasses working on new product launches, developing POS materials for retail stores, creating banners for ecommerce retailers, devising tailored promotional activities for each retailer and ensuring consistency in brand communications to consumers. Using your exceptional analytical skills, you will be able to translate key data into spreadsheets and be able to explain the data in terms of key insights to both the business as a whole, and to retailers.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a market-leading business who are renowned for their progression and development opportunities. This role also offers flexible working opportunities, as much of your role will be based in key retail sites.
