ReQuire are thrilled to be handling the hire of yet another Transformation role. This really is an incredible and rare opportunity for a Senior Digital Leader to take full ownership of a high-impact digital transformation for a nationally recognised consumer brand. This is a mandate to rebuild, scale, and modernise a complex B2C/B2B digital ecosystem, not maintain the status quo.

The Opportunity:

You will shape and deliver the digital strategy for a unique organisation. The digital platform needs to evolve into a modern, high-performing ecommerce engine capable of competing nationally.

So if you are motivated by leading transformation, simplifying complexity, and building something future-fit, this role offers scale, autonomy, and visibility.

What Makes This Role Exciting

Lead a marketplace-style, multi-retailer platform(Mirakl-style logic)

The ecommerce model operates like a marketplace, with multiple customers fulfilling through one national site.

The Head of Digital role, requires a Leader who can:

  • Improve and standardise product data & feeds

  • Optimise order routing, fulfilment logic, and CX across many “sellers”

  • Drive digital adoption across a diverse retailer network

  • Build scalable digital operations and automation

  • Turn complexity into a commercially powerful online proposition

This is ideal for someone with marketplace, multi-seller, or Amazon-style ecosystem experience.

What You'll Lead

  • Full digital & ecommerce strategy

  • Re-platforming, optimisation, and UX/CX improvements

  • Trading performance, data insights & digital operations

  • Roadmap across ecommerce, content, digital marketing & automation

  • Strong collaboration across internal teams and external retail partners

What We're Looking For

  • Senior digital/ecommerce leadership

  • Proven experience driving transformation, not just managing BAU

  • Background across B2C and B2B environments

  • Strong understanding of marketplace or multi-seller models

  • Commercial, data-driven, innovative mindset

  • Confident leader able to influence multiple stakeholders

Why This Role Will Appeal

  • Huge scope to shape a national digital presence

  • Complex, interesting multi-retailer ecosystem

  • Board-level visibility and strategic ownership

  • Competitive package + real autonomy to deliver change

If you’re ready to lead a digital transformation with real scale and impact, I’d welcome a confidential conversation.
