Product Marketing Manager House & Garden
Do you have proven success in leading integrated B2B marketing programmes?
Do you enjoy both strategy and execution?
Operating in the complex world of construction and landscaping, ACO is an exciting and stimulating B2B environment for marketers.
Water is one of the most important sustainability topics globally and the care of such an essential resource is vital in all environments, none more than the built environment. Caring for water is at the heart of ACO’s business, working in conjunction with a broad customer base and a wide range of stakeholders and influencers including architects, engineers, landscape designers, contractors, housebuilders, DIY’ers and legislators. The working environment both demands and encourages progressive and dynamic thinking in all areas of the business.
The challenge of marketing to complex and dynamic markets is combined with the opportunities modern technology creates something ACO aims to be at the forefront of.
Whilst you will work closely and collaboratively with the wider Marketing Team, you will be solely responsible for the marketing of this product area and will be the ‘voice of the customer’ within ACO, championing the needs and experiences of the customer in our service and support as well as products.
You will be office based at our Head Office in Shefford, Bedfordshire, and some travel is expected.
