• A track record of delivering integrated campaigns, product launches and demand generation activity.
• Strong digital marketing knowledge, including CRM, marketing automation, analytics and content platforms
• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to influence across sales, product, technical and senior leadership teams.
• A creative, forward‑thinking approach, combined with strong operational discipline.
• A passion for innovation, sustainability and the evolving construction landscape.

What We Offer:

• Comprehensive total reward package including performance related bonus opportunity
• Company car or car cash scheme
• Full training on our market‑leading water management products
• Private health care / Personal pension schemes with high employer contributions
• 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays - increasing to 28 days with service

• Supportive, inclusive team culture
• Work for a global brand with local impact and room to grow
