The Channel Strategy team
A dynamic and collaborative group, committed to challenging the status quo and uncovering new opportunities to deliver better outcomes for both customers and Sky.
As a Commercial Strategy Manager
You’ll play a key role in shaping and executing strategic initiatives across Sky’s Assisted Channels. Working closely with stakeholders and cross-functional teams, you’ll contribute to projects that enhance the customer experience and drive commercial performance.
What You’ll Do
Shape the future Strategy:
- Contribute to the development of assisted channel strategies and help identify opportunities to develop how we interact with customers, such as contact optimisation (Calls/Chat) and our long range assisted channel strategy. This isn’t about the day-to-day; it’s about stepping back, thinking big, and helping shape mid to long-term improvements that deliver real business impact.
Understand commercial impact and build business cases:
- Work with Trading, Commercial and Finance teams to interpret performance data, develop business cases and assess the commercial impact of key initiatives. You’ll use insight to shape clear recommendations, support better decision-making and inform future plans.
Project Coordination:
- You’ll play a key role in bringing our strategic plans to life by planning & executing the Go-To-Market plans (GTM) for our initiatives. You’ll collaborate with teams across consumer group, customer service group and capability teams to ensure smooth delivery.
Drive clarity through strong communication:
- From presentations to reports, you’ll create clear, engaging content that helps stakeholders understand the ‘why’ behind our plans—and get behind them.
Cross-Functional Collaboration:
- Build strong relationships with internal teams such as Commercial, Finance, and Trading and partner to support the delivery of initiatives aligned to business goals.
