- Collaborate with teams to define performance metrics and evidence and report impact
- Define optimisation standards and processes (e.g. pipeline management and user-centred hypothesis development)
- Collaborate with our Design, Product, and Delivery Leadership team to continuously improve the ways our colleagues work together
- Lead the optimisation community at Co-op and encourage them to share their knowledge and expertise across the wider business
- Line-manage up to 4 of our Lead SEO/CRO Managers and support them in their development

- Experience defining and delivering data-led product strategies
- Experience leading optimisation teams (including SEO/CRO) and developing digital products and services
- A good understanding of product-led growth methodologies.
- Strong commercial awareness and an understanding of the links between user experience and business value
- Senior line management experience, with the ability to lead teams of up to 4 or more people
- Good communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to influence and challenge people inclusively

**Why Co-op?**

If you’ve got the skills and experience we’re looking for, we can offer you a competitive salary and great benefits package which includes 30% off Co-op branded products in our food stores (as well as other discounts on Co-op products and services). You’ll also get:

- Private healthcare
- A company car or car allowance
- An annual bonus (based on personal and business performance)
- 28 days holiday (rising to 32 with service) plus bank holidays
- A pension with up to 10% employer contributions
- Access to a subsidised onsite gym (at our Manchester HQ)
- Coaching and training to support your career development
- Wagestream - a money management app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it
- YuLife - an app that rewards you for exercising with discounts and vouchers for your favourite brands

**Building an inclusive work environment**

At Co-op, we’re proud to do things a different way. As one of the world’s largest co-operatives, owned by millions of members, community is at the heart of what we do. Since our Co-op was founded in 1844, we’ve had a clear social purpose, and everything we do as a business helps to build a fairer world for our members, customers, colleagues, and communities.

We'll ask whether you’d like to be considered under the Disability Confident scheme when you apply.
