Tools the company mentioned in the job description.

Questions you can expect in the interview

Drawn from this posting. None of them repeat on another job.

1.You would manage the full DTC P&L across trading, paid media, CRM, CRO and digital performance. Which of those do you trust yourself with least, and how do you cover it?
2.The role spans UK and international markets. What changes first when you take a beauty brand into a new market, and what do people wrongly assume travels?
3.The posting names Shopify Plus, Klaviyo, Triple Whale and GA4 together. When those tools disagree about what drove a sale, which do you believe and why?
4.You would drive personalisation and loyalty initiatives. In beauty, where does personalisation genuinely help the customer rather than just the brand?
5.You would build annual growth plans, manage budgets and forecast. Tell us about a forecast you got badly wrong and what you changed in how you build them.
