Hybrid working (Head Office Windermere – minimum 3 days per week)

About The Role

In this role, you’ll be responsible for coordinating the logistics of all product samples and product details required for marketing activities, including photo shoots and filming. It’s your job to ensure the correct samples reach the right place at the right time.

Reporting to the Brand Development & Campaign Manager, this is a cross-functional and external-facing role liaising with the Marketing, Buying, and Merchandising teams, as well as dealing directly with third-party suppliers to support the coordination of a profitable annual marketing calendar.

You’ll work closely with the buying and merchandising teams to ensure the marketing department has timely access to all necessary products, including new items, to support marketing activities.

You’ll also collaborate with the marketing team to supply all product requirements for prize draws and other product-related marketing initiatives.

About You

You’ll be highly organized and deadline-driven, capable of planning and managing multiple concurrent timelines. Excellent communication skills are essential to coordinate with cross-functional colleagues, and you should be able to influence others around a common purpose.

You’ll be confident and comfortable dealing with external suppliers and colleagues at all levels within Lakeland.

You’ll need to be a proactive self-starter, solution-oriented, with a positive and can-do attitude.

Being a team player who collaborates well, welcomes feedback, and strives for self-improvement is important.

Proficiency in Excel is preferred to effectively track product sample movements in and out of the business.

• Experience in coordination or planning roles, preferably in B2C and multichannel online businesses.
• Good computer literacy, including Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.

Experience (Ideal, Not Essential)

• Project management
• Bespoke software solutions
• Marketing and/or Buying & Merchandising experience
