easyJet wants to build a world-class Commercial function, delivering industry-leading revenue performance across our network. The Lead Trading Manager plays a critical role within our Trading and Revenue Management teams, setting and implementing our trading strategy for the geographical regions to maximise total revenue per seat (RPS).

As the Lead Trading Manager, youll be at the helm, driving revenue performance in your assigned regions. You wont be alone; youll lead a dynamic team of Trading Managers and Analysts. Working closely with the Senior Trading Manager, youll craft winning region-level strategies and steer their execution through the Revenue Management System (RMS) and other commercial avenues.

Keeping your finger on the pulse, youll track sales trends and bring energy into revenue initiatives that promise a brighter future. You wont just crunch numbers; youll be a storyteller, communicating regional triumphs to various levels within our organisation.

But thats not all. Youll be the conductor of collaboration, partnering with key stakeholders across our Commercial teams to synchronise efforts and ensure that easyJet rockets past its revenue targets. This isnt just a job; its a journey, and youre the captain charting the course to success!

As the Lead Trading Manager, your mission is clear, turbocharge revenue in your regions. Youll chart the strategy, mastermind promotions, and boost collaboration across departments. Youre the promo pro, teaming up with Marketing and CRM to ignite regional and network-wide promos. Youll craft sharp communication strategies, segmenting for engagement. And tracking results? Youre on it. Meetings? Youre the conductor, orchestrating Regional Trading Meetings and presenting at Central Trading Meetings. Ad hoc analyses? Consider it done.

Competitive strategies are your specialty. Youll partner with the Senior Trading Manager on revenue-maximizing pricing. Youll stay vigilant on competition and collaborate on corporate-wide strategies. Leading a team is your forte. Each member gets clear objectives and development plans. Youll nurture their skills and ensure a bright future.

As a change agent and leader, you cut through the noise, fostering positive momentum. Collaboration is your forte, whether with internal teams or external partners.
