The Opportunity
Build and scale our UKI DTC growth engine across Pukka, Lipton and PG Tips. Own the full customer journey - from acquisition to advocacy - and launch a new DTC proposition spanning CRM, subscriptions, social commerce and retail.
Operate like a start-up: move fast, stay close to customers, test relentlessly and scale what works. This is a hands-on role with clear commercial accountability.
Reporting to the UKI CMO and leading one direct report, you will have the freedom to make fast, evidence-led decisions.
What you will own:
- Set the growth agenda: Turn UKI DTC strategy into focused priorities and fast execution.
- Own the numbers: Drive revenue, margin, conversion, AOV, CAC, LTV, retention and payback.
- Launch and scale: Build the proposition, trading model, subscriptions, fulfilment and customer experience.
- Grow customer value: Use CRM, lifecycle marketing, first-party data and personalisation to increase repeat purchase.
- Test fast: Ship focused experiments across proposition, creative, journeys and offers; scale or stop decisively.
- Win in social commerce: Build a shoppable creator and TikTok Shop playbook that converts and retains.
- Connect DTC and retail: Use DTC insight to improve omnichannel propositions, content and conversion.
- Build capability: Create lean rhythms, clear dashboards and a high-performing team.
