Local Marketing Manager
-
Apr 2013 - Aug 2015
Responsible for the local marketing plans belonging to Specsavers stores within the Granada TV region of England. At any given time, I would have between 70 and 80 stores assigned to me across the North West. The Marketing Manager role is to support retail partners in driving customer volume and growing their market share. I would pitch marketing proposals and implement strategies to maximise store performance. Gleaming insights from market/customer data is crucial in identifying local and regional opportunities to grow the optical and hearcare businesses. I would conduct bi-weekly store visits across the UK and attend strategic meetings with our divisional retail teams. I also worked closely with our media agency ‘OMD’ and our PR agency ‘Beattie Communications’, as well as business development and the creative teams to execute the best marketing plans for our partners.
