About Us

You’ve probably heard of Autotrader, but do you know what we’re all about?

We’re the UK’s leading automotive marketplace, a heritage brand, and a tech darling of the stock market. We bring together vehicle buyers and sellers to give them real choices. Cars may be what we’re best known for but we’re also the place for pretty much everything else on wheels, from e-bikes to caravans.

In the automotive world, change is a constant, that’s why we take our job of untangling the complex car-buying journey very seriously.

At our core, we’re all about people. We go our own way while embracing diversity and celebrating our differences. We dedicate ourselves to the idea that we work better together.

Autotrader is a beautiful, surprising and vibrant place to work. We might not be for everyone, but we could be perfect for you.

About The Role

We’re looking for a CRM Lead to join our Consumer Performance and Growth team in Manchester.

We’re on a mission to create smarter, more connected experiences that help car buyers and sellers make confident decisions. As part of our investment in growth, we’re building a best-in-class performance and growth capability, with CRM playing a central role in that ambition.

As a CRM Lead, you will own and shape the end-to-end CRM strategy for consumers, helping guide users through the car-buying journey with timely, relevant, and engaging communications.

This is a highly collaborative role, working across a cross-functional growth team alongside product managers, marketing, engineers and data analysts. Together, you’ll create seamless, joined-up experiences that deliver the right message to the right customer at the right moment.

As well as leading strategy and execution, you’ll also be responsible for developing and leading a high-performing CRM team by providing mentorship and guidance. You’ll set high standards for execution and experimentation, build out capability, and help shape what CRM looks like at Autotrader. Regular collaboration with business and product leadership will be essential, as will a strong understanding of lifecycle challenges, consumer insight, and data-driven decision making.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in CRM and lifecycle marketing, with a track record of owning strategy across multiple channels. (email, SMS, app, push)
• Leadership experience in developing high-performing teams, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement, mentoring teams, and driving CRM excellence.
