Trade Marketer

New Opportunity!

Are you passionate about the consumer? Do you want to get involved in uncomplicating the world of wine in the UK on-trade? Does the very mention of the word rose bring to mind a veritable array of promotional ideas?

If the answer is yes, then you need to think about joining the Trade Marketing Team.

The role will be responsible for a wide range of activities including, but not exclusively, the following:

• Building strategic marketing relationships with relevant marketing contacts in each key account that they manage

• Developing key account category plans and annual customer marketing plans where appropriate

• Agreeing, monitoring and evaluating customer marketing funds with the relevant people

• Acting as custodian of all channel insights and relevant market data

• Helping to develop strong commercial promotions

• Managing promotional activity from concept through to implementation, including collaboration with the Bibendum design team and logistical organisation

• Working closely with the Bibendum Communications team on brand and reputation activities

This exciting trade marketing role has a strong sales focus and the ability and confidence to influence sales and construct strong commercial arguments needs to be very evident.

Candidates applying for this role will need to be able to demonstrate knowledge of the On Trade. They will also need to be able to show that they have the following skills and experience:

• Good solid experience within a marketing team of a fast moving, multi-sku business

• Creative flair and an ability to brief and project manage both internal and external designers from concept development through to final production

• Demonstrable problem solving ability with creative solutions coupled with a financially astute approach

• A keen ability to manage workload and multiple deadlines from various sources

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

• Very good IT (particularly Excel, Powerpoint and Word)

• A real eye for detail

• Excellent presentation and influencing skills and ideally experience of delivering plans and material to key customers

• A methodical and organised approach to work together with experience of data management and analysis and the ability to think logically and show initiative

All applicants will need to enjoy engaging all areas of the business and cross functional working. A wine and/or marketing qualification would be an added advantage as would some NPD and previous trade marketing experience. The successful candidate will be self assured, a good team player with strong self motivation and a commitment to a minimum of two years in the role.

This vacancy may involve unsociable hours on occasion.

The role is based at our offices in Primrose Hill and is immediately available for the right candidate.
