About the role

Retail Media and Marketplace are two of Redcare Pharmacy’s fastest-growing and most strategically important domains — and this is your opportunity to shape how they evolve together. Leading an engineering organisation of around 40 engineers across 5–7 teams, you will decide where these two distinct platforms should converge to create a seamless experience for brands and sellers, and where they should remain separate to perform at their best.

This is a high-visibility leadership role where your decisions will directly influence our customer experience and commercial growth. Reporting to our Executive Director of Engineering / VP of Engineering, you will lead through two Engineering Managers and partner closely with Product and Commercial leadership to turn engineering strategy into measurable business outcomes.

Job Description

• Lead and grow the organisation: Develop your Engineering Managers and their teams, shaping the organisation as the domains evolve while creating an environment with clear ownership and autonomy.
• Drive engineering excellence: Own delivery, reliability, architecture and technical debt, continuously raising engineering maturity and enabling teams to move quickly without compromising quality.
• Turn technology into commercial impact: Co-own roadmaps with Product and Commercial, connecting engineering priorities to outcomes such as take rate, advertiser ROAS, seller economics and contribution margin.
• Own strategic partnerships: Lead engineering relationships with external platforms, integrators and agencies, including build/buy/partner decisions, integrations, SLAs and vendor performance.

Qualifications

About you

• You combine strong technical judgement with commercial thinking, connecting engineering decisions to business outcomes and confidently partnering with senior Product and Commercial stakeholders.
