What you’ll be doing

A typical day in this role is proactive, commercially focused, and highly collaborative, centred on shaping and executing the aggregator channel strategy at pace. You’ll begin by reviewing performance, market movements, and partner intelligence to identify opportunities, risks, or optimisation priorities, quickly translating insight into clear actions. You’ll lead conversations with senior partner stakeholders to progress joint plans, commercial negotiations, and testing activity, whilst ensuring product presence, tracking, and compliance standards remain robust. Throughout the day, you’ll work closely with product, pricing, digital, and compliance leaders to influence decisions, resolve issues, and align activity to business and regulatory objectives. You’ll actively steer performance reporting and planning, challenge assumptions with data, and share clear recommendations with senior stakeholders, whilst also coaching team members and embedding best practice. Your day will typically conclude with forward planning—setting direction, prioritising initiatives, and ensuring the aggregator channel is positioned to deliver high-quality, responsible acquisition and sustained market advantage.

About you

As a minimum, you’ll have:

• Extensive experience leading aggregator, affiliate, or price comparison site channels, with end-to-end accountability for commercial performance, governance, and senior partner relationships
• Proven capability to use complex commercial and performance data to diagnose trends, assess traffic quality, shape strategy, and drive measurable improvements in acquisition efficiency and conversion outcomes
• Proven track record of owning senior-level external relationships, leading high-impact conversations, negotiating commercial terms, influencing outcomes, and delivering joint business plans with major partners
• Deep experience ensuring accurate and compliant product representation, pricing, and proposition positioning across third-party platforms, with a strong understanding of operating in regulated financial services environments
• Demonstrated ability to operate confidently across product, pricing, digital, compliance, finance, and commercial teams, influencing decisions and aligning activity to business strategy and regulatory requirements
• Proven strength in managing competing priorities at pace, providing clear direction, maintaining high standards, and embedding best practice while leading testing, optimisation, and continuous improvement activity
