Here at Vertu Motors we are looking for a commercially focused Senior Ecommerce Marketing Manager to lead the performance and optimisation of our ecommerce platforms. In this high-impact role, you’ll combine strategic leadership with hands-on delivery to drive revenue growth, improve marketing effectiveness, and enhance the customer journey across our digital channels.
You’ll lead a talented team, collaborate with channel specialists and external partners, and own the full ecommerce performance strategy — from acquisition and retention to onsite optimisation and product performance.

- Set priorities, manage budgets, and brief internal teams and agencies.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
