Marketing Manager

Marketing Manager

📍 Chester (Hybrid – Salary £35k – Permanent)

The Opportunity

Working closely with our Head of Digital, you’ll lead the development and delivery of a joined‑up, 360° marketing strategy across the business. This is a broad, hands‑on role for someone who enjoys balancing brand, creativity, and commercial performance — and turning ambition into consistent execution.

This is not a purely digital role. While digital remains central, you’ll also influence how the brand comes to life in-store, through content, partnerships, events, print, and influencer activity — ensuring a consistent, premium experience wherever customers interact with us.

You’ll collaborate with internal stakeholders and an established network of freelancers, creators, agencies, and partners, with real autonomy to make decisions and deliver visible impact.

• Improve segmentation, timing, and messaging to support performance and long‑term brand value

Campaigns, Growth & Commercial Support

• Plan and oversee campaigns across digital, retail, and content

Social Media & Community

• Define and manage a consistent social content strategy across TikTok, Meta, and YouTube

• Some understanding of digital marketing strategy and execution
• Experience with Shopify or similar platforms
• Experience of campaign management, some brand marketing
• Confidence using data, performance metrics, and commercial KPIs
