Job description

Junior Trade Marketing Manager

Salary: A competitive salary is available plus great company benefits

Location: Flexible hybrid working, with three days a week in our Farringdon office, plus occasional travel to customers as required

Hours: Monday – Friday, 40 hours per week

Little Moons are frozen and chilled mochi, a fusion of Eastern and Western cuisine – soft and chewy rice flour dough wrapped around balls of ice cream, cheesecake, or chocolate ganache to create a distinctive, bite-sized, and delicious dessert that’s bursting with flavour.

Their rollout across Europe has been pioneered by sister and brother duo Vivien and Howard Wong, who founded Little Moons in 2010. The product’s roots are in high-end restaurants, but over the last five years retail packs have swept the ice cream category in grocery and food service.

Little Moons has rapidly established mochi, and snacking ice cream, across Europe. In 2024 we generated more than £60m revenue, and in 2025 we continue to drive towards double digit growth. We are also now a Certified B Corporation, which reflects our strong commitment to balancing profit and purpose. This certification means we are part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact, reinforcing our dedication to making a meaningful difference.

We are very proud of the culture that we have built at Little Moons. Not to stroke our own egos, but we are a great bunch of people - smart, passionate, interesting, and funny - who work hard to support and live our values, all the while keeping our mission in our forethoughts.

About the Role

Step into a position that drives trade marketing across international markets, bringing campaigns to life and fuelling growth in the frozen and chilled snacking category.
