Trade Marketing Executive

Job Overview

About The Role

At AO, we’re all about making life easier-and that includes how we bring brands to life for our customers. We don’t just run campaigns; we create moments that stand out, deliver real value, and help our partners shine.

We’re looking for a Trade Marketing Executive to deliver brilliant, supplier-funded campaigns that drive sales and make an impact. You’ll work across different categories to turn ideas into seamless activations-making sure everything lands on time, on brief, and delivers against its goals.

Working closely with Account Managers, "you’ll get to grips with each campaign-understanding what it’s aiming to achieve", the "why," and what success looks like. You’ll be comfortable getting stuck into execution as you are analysing performance and spotting ways to make things even better next time. You’ll own campaigns, build strong relationships, collaborating with teams across the business to make it happen, whilst making smart decisions that drive both sales and supplier investment.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and want to see your work deliver real commercial results-this could be your next move.

Our people are our superpower, and we’re unstoppable when we’re together! We want your ideas to flow, and what better way to make that happen than being based onsite, 5 days a week, where our culture fuels creativity, collaboration and growth. If a £1 bet in the pub between two friends can become the UKs most trusted electrical retailer, imagine what else can be achieved when we’re together.
