At Vape.co.uk we are a small but growing team with a mission. We are looking for a Partnerships Executive to join us on the journey. We're a young and fun team, looking for somebody to bring ideas and energy to the role.
The Role
As a Partnerships Executive, you will be responsible for managing relationships with brands that we work with, creating and selling marketing campaigns for them on the Vape.co.uk website. You’ll not only deliver campaigns for brands but you’ll manage the entire relationship and sales process.
You will need to perform sales outreach and forge relationships with marketing managers and teams to deliver strong ROI to our brands. You’ll leverage our current marketing toolkit to generate campaigns like email marketing, advertising banners and on site placements.
Part of your role will be relationship management, which includes in hosting in person meetings as well as zoom / teams calls with relevant stakeholders. You’ll need to not only be comfortable with the outreach but be confident in your organisational and administrative skills to juggle external communication with internal execution.
We’re really looking for a relationship manager who can form connections with brands to drive successful campaigns and ultimately improve their digital presence within the UK market.
The main responsibilities and duties include;
- Managing existing partnerships with our direct brand partners
- Fostering new relationships with manufacturers and brands marketing teams
- Crafting on-site advertising campaigns for brands that align with their KPI’s for the UK market
- Campaign management and administration – oversee the campaign from start to finish, reporting on successes and areas to improve

The ideal candidate:
You’ll be a confident and natural people person who is capable of speaking to everyone no matter their seniority. A creative ideas person who wants to push the boundaries and challenge our current processes. Ideally you love the idea of running a marketing campaign on behalf of a brand from start to finish and the project management that comes with it. You’ll need commercial aptitude to be able to deliver ROI for the brands we work with and be able to report on the campaign afterwards. This will mean you need strong administration skills and the ability to see something through start to finish.
You should be able to communicate ideas effectively and with confidence and have the ability to sell these ideas, converting them to campaign advertising sales.
Ultimately, we hire personalities, not just experience. If you’re a novice, you’ll be given complete training and the freedom to bring your ideas to life. If you’re an expert, we love that too.
We feel this role would be perfect for somebody as an entry level to account management and marketing partnerships but we of course welcome experienced pro’s!
