We're cinch. Our mission is simple – remove the faff from buying and owning cars, giving customers more choice, with more ease. That’s it. We’re putting drivers first and we’ve ripped up the rule book to make sure that happens.

We’re a customer-first ecommerce business with huge ambition, already driving exponential growth. And we have an exciting roadmap of innovative products to grow our customer offering as preference for buying cars online grows.

cinch is part of the Constellation Automotive Group, one of the UK’s largest automotive groups. That means we’re part of a family including WeBuyAnyCar.com, BCA and Marshall Motor Group. We like to keep good company.

You

We’ve attracted some of the smartest folks around. Right now, we need one more. Do you have a faff-free filter? Do you like being part of energetic, open-minded and passionate teams? If you’re ready to thrive in an accelerated growth environment, full of ideas and want to challenge the norm, you could be our new Head of Brand and Product Marketing.

What you’ll be working on

Already one of the UK’s most recognisable brands, you will be responsible for defining the cinch brands’ future and leading its development and growth.

You’ll be responsible for helping cinch transform the car buying and owning experience. You’ll cement the business as the leading, faff-free, online motoring service in the UK, ensuring cinch becomes part of everyday motoring rather than a one-off purchase.

Working with the Chief Customer Officer, you’ll set the brand and product marketing strategies. You’ll ensure they’re delivered effectively through strong leadership and collaboration with the other marketing leaders and with cinch Product, Decision Intelligence and Commercial teams.

You will be naturally proactive and entrepreneurial in a role that is both business critical and highly visible within the organisation.
