Ellipsis Brands is experiencing an exciting period of rapid growth as we evolve into a mid-tier player in the global cosmetics industry. Our brands – including Q+A, Percy Nobleman, and The Elements – are gaining widespread market recognition both in the UK and internationally.
This success is driven by expanding the distribution of our existing brand portfolio while bringing innovative new brands and products to market. We’re now looking for a passionate and detail-oriented Trade Marketing Assistant to join our vibrant team and support this growth further.
The Role

You’ll provide valuable brand marketing support while also contributing to digital marketing and eCommerce activity across brand websites and email campaigns.
The ideal candidate will be organised and dynamic with strong communication skills and an ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment. Reporting to the Trade Marketing Manager, you’ll work closely with both the marketing and sales teams to support the seamless execution of trade marketing and digital marketing initiatives.
