Head of Marketing - Join Manchester's Most Exciting Sports Retailer

iO Associates have partnered with dare I say… the most exciting sports retailer in Manchester right now to bring on board a Head of Marketing

This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership role within a growing marketing team at one of Manchester's fastest-growing companies. Rooted in football's rich history and culture, this eCommerce powerhouse is scaling rapidly, with major investment driving expansion across the UK, North America, and Europe.

We're looking for a Head of Marketing to lead the next stage of growth, elevate campaigns to the next level, and make a tangible impact across the business.

You will be joining an agile, down-to-earth team that's passionate about what they do. If you're a marketing pro who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on environment and knows how to deliver (not just define) strategy, this is your chance to shine.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Deliver Campaigns That Matter: Own the marketing strategy, with a strong focus on paid advertising, digital marketing, and driving eCommerce growth.
  • Inspire the Team: Lead and motivate a diverse group of creatives-from fresh talent to seasoned experts.
  • Drive Results: Track KPIs, optimize campaigns, and ensure we're hitting (or smashing) our goals.
  • Tell the Story: Collaborate with content and creative teams to deliver cohesive, compelling messaging across all channels.
  • Own the Budget: Make smart, strategic decisions to maximize ROI across marketing spend.
  • Shape the Future: Build on strong foundations to transform the marketing function into a world-class operation.

What We're Looking For

  • Paid Advertising Expertise: Deep knowledge of digital channels and scaling eCommerce campaigns. Experience planning and optimizing paid campaigns is essential.
  • Agility & Autonomy: Thrives in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment with the confidence to make key decisions.
  • Leadership That Inspires: Proven ability to win hearts and minds, lead by example, and align the team behind shared goals.
  • Down-to-Earth Approach: Real, approachable, and always willing to roll up your sleeves to get the job done.

Your First 90 Days

  • Immerse Yourself: Spend time with the team to understand the business and current initiatives.
  • Build Trust: Connect with senior management and key stakeholders, earning their confidence.
  • Set Foundations: Establish probation-period goals and identify quick wins to set the marketing function up for success.

This business is scaling fast and has already undergone a major transformation. It's an exciting time to join and make your mark.

Join a genuinely passionate, agile group who cares about driving growth and making things happen.

If you're all about strategy, execution, and inspiring teams, this role is for you. Apply now and help us take our marketing game to the next level
