• Drive fast, evidence-led decisions – test, learn, and scale

• Improve core journeys – discovery, range visibility, product detail, and checkout

• Use AI for predictive analysis, demand signals, and proactive decision making

• Apply AI-driven optimisation across merchandising, search, and personalisation

• Turn data into insight – enabling continuous improvement and automated actions at scale

• Partner with commercial, design, data, and engineering teams to scale Marketplace experiences

You will need

• Strong experience in ecommerce, ideally Marketplace or extended range

• Deep expertise in at least one specialist category (electronics, home, beauty, pets etc.)

• Track record of launching and optimising Marketplace or extended range

• Experience owning a customer-facing product area with measurable impact

• Strong commercial mindset focused on growth and customer outcomes

• Experience using data, analytics, and AI/ML to drive product decisions

Nice to have

• Experience in fast-paced scaling environments
