About the role
This is a household name, an established business with real scale and a loyal customer base and they’re now investing seriously in marketplace as a key growth channel.
This is a hands-on Marketplace Manager role, focused on launching and managing marketplace channels from day one. You’ll be responsible for the day-to-day running, optimisation and growth of marketplace operations across a broad and impressive portfolio of platforms — with Amazon at the core. You’ll also provide wider e-commerce support across the business’s websites when needed, and as marketplace scales, there’s a real opportunity to shape the strategy and build a team beneath you.
If you’re a confident, commercially focused marketplace professional who thrives in a lean, fast-moving environment and wants genuine ownership, this is one to take seriously.

Growth & strategy
- Support the launch and growth of new marketplace partnerships across platforms including TikTok Shop, Tesco, B&Q, Debenhams, The Range, Wayfair, Next, eBay, JoyBuy, and Argos
- Identify and onboard additional marketplace opportunities as the channel evolves
- Help shape marketplace strategy as the function scales, with the potential to build and lead a team
- Provide cover and support for wider e-commerce website management when required
What we’re looking for
- Proven marketplace management experience, ideally with hands-on Amazon expertise
- Strong operational e-commerce background with experience managing multiple platforms
- Experience with marketplace integration tools such as Channel Engine or similar
- Knowledge of digital marketplace advertising and sponsored placements
- Commercial awareness with a clear focus on driving sales growth and operational efficiency
- Ability to work independently and thrive in a lean, hands-on team environment
