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

About your tasks:

• Shape Retail Media & Marketplace: Set the engineering direction across both domains, deciding where the platforms should converge to create the most value for brands, sellers and Redcare.
• 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 have 3+ years of experience leading multiple engineering teams through managers or leads and have successfully led organisations through significant change, such as merging domains, introducing new scope or replacing a platform.
• You have led development of commercial B2B platforms such as a marketplace, retail media, ad tech, payments or a seller/partner platform, with experience across high-traffic and transactional systems.
• You combine strong technical judgement with commercial thinking, connecting engineering decisions to business outcomes and confidently partnering with senior Product and Commercial stakeholders.
• You care deeply about engineering excellence, can demonstrate measurable improvements you have driven, and are comfortable navigating ambiguity, external partners and competing priorities. Strong English communication skills are essential.
