Online Trading Executive - #2105199

Fancy owning a number that actually moves the needle? At Protein Works, the Online Trading Executive isn't a supporting role, it's the person in the room who can tell you exactly how the site is performing today, why, and what we're doing about it before the day is out.

This is a brilliant first step into ecommerce trading. You'll sit at the heart of our ecommerce team, reporting directly to our Commercial Director, working across the UK, Ireland, France and Germany. What matters most here is a genuine head for numbers and a comfort with data, everything else about the platforms, the promotions and the trading rhythm we'll teach you. If you're the type who naturally spots the pattern in a spreadsheet before anyone points it out, and you like getting to the "why" behind a number, you'll thrive in this role.

This is a genuinely hands on role for someone who loves the detail as much as the big number, and who wants their work to have visible, immediate impact on a business that's investing seriously in ecommerce, data and AI driven commerce.

We are growing, investing and hiring with purpose. If you want to join a business with the energy of a challenger and the foundations of a market leader, this is the right moment to do it.

What You'll Do

• Help build the daily and weekly trading read across all four markets, tracking revenue, conversion and AOV against target, and flagging what's changing and why.
• Support the planning and execution of the promotional calendar, from offer mechanics through to go live, learning the mechanics of zero defect promotions as you go.
• Merchandise the site, from homepage to category pages, search, cross sell and upsell, to convert more of the traffic we already have.
• Get involved in new product launches, making sure content, pricing and merchandising land together on day one.
• Support the growth of Subscribe & Save through smarter offers, journeys and retention focused trading.
• Use trading and stock data to spot pricing, margin and stock risks early, building your commercial judgement with support from the wider team.

Ideal Candidate

• A genuine strength with numbers and data, you're comfortable pulling apart a spreadsheet or a dashboard to find the story behind it.
• A maths, statistics or similarly numerate degree background is ideal, but a demonstrable head for figures matters more to us than the subject on your certificate.
• No prior ecommerce or trading experience needed, we'll train you on the platforms, the promotional mechanics and the trading rhythm.
• Confident with Excel or Google Sheets, and keen to build your skills in tools like GA4 as you go.
• Highly organised and detail obsessed, with the drive to execute flawlessly in a fast, reactive environment.
• A self starter who takes ownership of outcomes rather than waiting to be asked, and who's always looking for the next improvement, however small.
