We are partnered with a founder-led, privately owned investment group with a premium, multi-sector portfolio spanning luxury, high-end, lifestyle businesses. It is entrepreneurial and hungry for growth, and it is creating a new Chief Commercial Officer role to drive the top line across the group.
This is a revenue and growth role. You will own the commercial strategy across a set of premium, high-value businesses, open new routes to market, and turn a collection of strong brands into a serious commercial engine. Digital is a major opportunity here, from brand and content through to performance, affiliate and influencer marketing, alongside memberships, subscriptions and corporate partnerships.
Key Responsibilities
- Set and own the group commercial and growth strategy.
- Drive top-line revenue across the portfolio, and find the cross-sell and synergy opportunities between the brands.
- Build commercial capability where it is thin, including a proper digital marketing engine.
- Instil commercial discipline: pricing, margin, pipeline, forecasting and CRM.
- Shape and originate new commercial opportunities where they fit.
- Work closely with the founder and CFO on the commercial cases that drive returns.
The Ideal Candidate
A commercial leader with a hunter’s mentality. Someone who picks up the phone themselves, gets in front of clients and partners, and opens doors through presence and persistence. Bold but professional, entrepreneurial, and equally comfortable building a premium brand with real substance and reading the analytics behind it.
- A clear revenue-generation track record at group or portfolio level, owning revenue and margin rather than marketing alone.
- Likely from a high-end leisure, hospitality or lifestyle background, used to premium, high-value and HNW audiences, corporate memberships and brand-led growth.
- Strong at building commercial functions and pipelines from a standing start.
- Credible with founders and boards, and able to hold a commercial argument at the top table.
We are open to a proven Chief Commercial Officer or a strong number two ready to step up.
