Full Job Description

At MECCA, we're always looking for better ways to bring our biggest ideas to life. As our Head of Commercial Strategy, you'll play a critical role in shaping the growth trajectory of MECCA-Maginations — our in-house brand incubator and innovation engine, often known as the Living Lab of Beauty. This is where our beauty intel and know-how takes shape, evolving into products and launching into the world. From MECCA COSMETICA to MECCA MAX and KIT, this team builds brands that don't just sit pretty on shelves — they spark joy, disrupt categories, and set new standards.

Reporting to the General Manager and working closely with our Chief MECCA-Maginations Officer, you'll bring commercial rigour and strategic clarity to our ambition to grow this portfolio . This is a 9–12 month fixed-term contract, covering a period of international expansion and some genuinely exciting confidential new brand work.

We're after someone who thrives on turning complexity into clarity and genuinely loves working with people to get things done

What You'll Do

Define and evolve the strategic direction behind our portfolio growth ambition, domestically and internationally.

Lead international market scoping, retailer conversations and go-to-market planning for MECCA COSMETICA and KIT across the UK and Europe.

Own the commercial planning cycle- forecasting, financial modelling and long-term profitability assessments that underpin key investment decisions.

Lead feasibility assessments and business cases for new brands, acquisitions and partnership opportunities.

Partner closely with our Heads of Brand and wider Leadership Team to challenge and shape growth plans across the portfolio.

Translate complex analysis into clear, compelling business cases and present recommendations to senior leadership.

Lead and develop our Commercial Analyst, building strategic and analytical capability across the team.

What You Will Bring

We're looking for a sharp strategic mind who thrives on ambiguity and loves turning complexity into clear commercial direction. A strategist through and through, with a background in consultancy and/or brand-side strategy, and deep commercial acumen. Proven experience will include:

Building business cases, financial models and market entry strategies.

A track record of operating confidently at leadership level and influencing senior stakeholders.

A structured thinker who brings clarity to ambiguity and momentum to complex, moving pieces of work.

Genuine curiosity for brands, consumer trends and global market dynamics.

Comfortable working autonomously in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.

A background in Brand Marketing is highly regarded.
