The Role


We're looking for a Commercial Marketing Executive (Retention) to help deliver marketing campaigns that strengthen supporter engagement and drive revenue growth across our commercial experience-based products.

As part of our Commercial Marketing team, you'll support the delivery of retention-focused marketing strategies across seasonal memberships, ticketing and hospitality.

Beyond that, we are passionate about our local community and, behind the scenes, we have a wide variety of opportunities and career paths for all. We have a very defined purpose: to act for a winning team, culture and community. We achieve this by ensuring we are courageous in the pursuit of progress, we champion our community and each other, and that we do the right thing (even when no one is looking).

Our Commitment to Safeguarding


We are committed to ensuring that our environments for children, young people and adults at risk remain safe and inclusive. We therefore require successful candidates to complete a DBS check and other essential background checks prior to starting their employment. Depending on the responsibilities of the role, a DBS will be either a basic, standard, or enhanced check.

  • Leverage supporter insights - you’ll utilise audience insights and performance data to deliver targeted and effective campaigns

  • Produce reporting and analysis - you will collaborate with Digital and Insights colleagues to track KPIs and deliver accurate performance reporting

  • Champion cross-functional collaboration - you’ll connect campaigns across content, retail and other commercial areas to maximise supporter engagement throughout the marketing funnel

What we are looking for


  • Retention marketing experience - you've supported commercially focused retention marketing campaigns that have delivered measurable results

  • Multi-channel marketing knowledge - you understand how paid, owned and earned media channels work together to achieve campaign objectives

  • Hands-on campaign delivery skills - you're comfortable using owned-channel marketing platforms, including email marketing tools

  • Data-driven mindset - you can interpret performance data and translate insights into actionable recommendations

  • Relationship-building ability - you confidently collaborate with stakeholders and manage external agency relationships effectively

  • Excellent communication skills - you build positive working relationships and communicate clearly with a range of audiences

  • Commercial acumen and accountability - you're motivated by delivering tangible outcomes while maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency throughout
