Revenue team · Reports to the Head of Revenue · Remote first
The role
Arc makes precision engineered aluminium and titanium cases for the devices people use most, sold as an object rather than an accessory. The business has grown quickly on one hero product, trades worldwide with the US and UK as its core markets, and reaches most of its customers through paid media.
The role has two halves, and they are equally important. The first is buying the traffic: performance media is the largest single investment in the business and the primary engine of new customer growth. The second is trading the website that converts it. Arc 's site is where almost every commercial decision lands, and it is the place with the most immediate headroom: how the range is presented and explained, how launches are executed, how the delivery and service proposition is shown, and how well the whole journey converts.
This is the first dedicated internal owner of both. You will not be buying media day to day, and you will not be building pages. You will set the strategy, trade the site week to week, direct our agency and development partners, and build the measurement that lets Arc invest with confidence. It suits someone who wants to own a channel outright and shape how it runs.
What you are accountable for
The cost and volume of new customer acquisition: how efficiently Arc converts media investment into new customers, in every market it trades in.
The performance media investment: how it is planned, allocated across markets, and phased across a trading year with pronounced peaks.
Trading the website: the site as a commercial asset. How it converts, how the range is presented, and how well it performs through the moments that matter.
The quality of acquisition measurement: the definitions, the reporting and the confidence the business can place in them.
The contribution of our agency and development partners: the output we get, the value we receive, and how the relationships develop.
What you own
Trading the website
The commercial performance of the site: what is featured, where it sits and when it changes
Homepage, landing page and collection merchandising, and how the range is sequenced and presented
Product page effectiveness, including how well the product is explained and sold to someone meeting the brand for the first time
Onsite search, navigation and product discovery
Basket and checkout performance, and removing friction through to purchase
Making the delivery, shipping and service proposition visible at the points where it influences a decision
Launch readiness and execution on site, so that major product moments land properly in every market
Promotional execution on site, and working with operations on availability and stock messaging
The weekly trading rhythm: reviewing performance, reacting to what is and is not selling, and feeding that back into media
Conversion, testing and development
The optimisation roadmap with our CRO partner, and the discipline to reach conclusions rather than abandoning tests midway
Test hypotheses and prioritisation, based on where the commercial opportunity actually sits
Prioritising the development backlog with our web partner, and being the commercial voice in that relationship
Site performance reporting: conversion by market and device, funnel drop off, and page level performance
Media strategy and investment
The annual and quarterly media plan across paid social, paid search and emerging channels
Allocation between markets, and the case for shifting investment toward the strongest returns
Phasing across the year, capitalising on the launch windows that concentrate demand and buy most efficiently
The balance between generating demand and capturing it, including growing search in line with the branded demand the brand is already creating
Agency direction
Setting the brief, the targets and the reporting rhythm
Weekly performance conversations and quarterly business reviews
Shaping account structure, campaign architecture and audience strategy
Assessing value delivered and guiding how the partnerships develop
Account structure and creative deployment
How campaigns are built, and how to get the most from the auction
How creative is deployed, rotated and refreshed
The concept pipeline: how much genuinely new creative is produced, and how often
Briefing the brand and influencer side, and being clear about what performance needs
Tracking discipline, so that the data arriving is clean and comparable
Measurement and attribution
The acquisition reporting pack: what is measured, how often, and for whom
Consistent metric definitions, so that trends can be trusted over time
Building an incrementality testing programme, and interpreting it rigorously
Reconciling platform reported performance with orders the business banks
Maintaining an agreed acquisition cost ceiling by market
New channels
Evaluating channels Arc does not yet use, building the case, designing the test and making the recommendation either way
Where this role starts and stops
This role owns the journey up to and including the first purchase, and the website that carries it. The majority of Arc 's traffic is new to the brand, so the site's primary commercial job is converting people who do not yet know it. Trading and conversion are acquisition measures, and whoever is accountable for the cost of a customer needs control of the page that converts them.
The Retention Manager owns the customer database and the lifecycle after purchase. Where the two meet:
Onsite merchandising and cross sell modules: you own what appears on site and how the range is sequenced. Retention owns cross sell through lifecycle messaging.
Email and SMS capture on site: Retention owns the mechanic and the offer. You own placement and its effect on conversion.
Audiences built from customer data: Retention owns the segments. You own how they are applied in platform.
Paid activity aimed at existing customers: you execute it, measured jointly on repeat revenue rather than acquisition cost.
Pages for returning and logged in customers: Retention briefs the requirement. You own the roadmap and build priority.
Promotional offers: you own acquisition offers. Retention owns lifecycle offers. Policy is set with the Head of Revenue.
Crossover is expected and healthy. Where ownership is not obvious, the test is simple: which measure moves if this works, and who is accountable for it. The Head of Revenue settles anything genuinely ambiguous.
Working with our partners Partners: campaign build and day to day buying. You: strategy, and the plan the buying serves.
Partners: bid, budget and audience management in platform. You: investment allocation by market and by season.
Partners: platform reporting and recommendations. You: deciding which recommendations are acted on.
Partners: producing performance creative variants. You: setting the creative brief and securing supply.
Partners: running optimisation tests. You: hypotheses, prioritisation and interpretation.
Partners: building and maintaining the site. You: deciding what gets built, in what order, and why.
