Digital Director

We're not here to make small tweaks. Digital sits at the heart of Holland & Barrett's transformation now established as a standalone strategic function led by our Group Chief Digital Officer on the Executive team. And it's paying off. Last year, we delivered 26% YOY growth in online sales, and we're entering FY26 with even bigger ambitions. Now we're looking for a Director of Digital (UK&I) who can turn that ambition into accelerated, market-leading growth in our biggest region. What you'll actually be doing You'll play a pivotal role in driving the UK&I digital performance - owning the Digital P&L and shaping the trading, customer and commercial outcomes that fuel our biggest region. This is a senior leadership role reporting directly to the CDO, with real influence across the entire business. If you've led digital at scale in a fast-growing business - and understand the complexity of large, horizontal eCommerce platforms - this is your chance to make a huge impact. You'll have the backing of the Exec and Board, and the mandate to deliver performance with pace. You'll take end-to-end ownership of UK&I digital trading, optimisation and execution. That means:

• Translating the Group Digital strategy into a clear, commercially-driven UK&I trading roadmap.
• Owning the Digital P&L - delivering revenue, EBITDA, margin and cost targets.

• Leading and developing a UK&I digital organisation of c.30 people via two direct reports, creating accountability, pace and commercial discipline.
• Overseeing trading across web, app and marketplace channels - including promotional strategy, trading calendar and peak execution.
• Working closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, Commercial, Retail and Supply Chain to ensure digital performance is aligned, competitive and constantly evolving.
• Strengthening omnichannel performance by partnering with Retail and Ops to optimise C&C, fulfilment and availability.
• Acting as the digital lead for the UK&I business, influencing senior stakeholders and ensuring digital is integrated across all commercial decision-making.
• Using data, insight and test-and-learn to inform trading decisions and drive continuous performance improvement.

How your impact will show up:

• Digital revenue, margin and EBITDA for UK&I don't just grow - they accelerate.
• Our customer experience feels seamless and connected across web, app and stores.
• The Exec and Board see you as a key leader in our digital growth journey.
• Our trading performance becomes more predictable, more efficient and more commercial.
• The UK&I digital team is engaged, accountable and delivering at pace.
• We're not just keeping up with competitors - we're setting the pace

• Senior-level experience leading digital in a fast-growing, high-scale eCommerce or retail business.
• Deep knowledge of digital trading, performance marketing, CRM and complex eCommerce platforms.
• A proven track record of delivering revenue, margin and profit targets.
• Strong understanding of digital analytics and how to use data to guide trading, investment and optimisation.
• Experience working cross-functionally with Product, Tech, Commercial, Retail and Supply Chain teams.
• Leadership experience building multidisciplinary digital teams with clear accountability.
