Description

Boparan Restaurant Group is looking for a commercially driven Head of E-Commerce, Digital & Delivery Marketing to lead the next phase of our digital growth.

Reporting directly to the Marketing Director, this is a senior role within the Marketing Leadership Team with responsibility for how our brands acquire, convert, retain and grow guests across digital channels.

The role brings together two critical areas of growth for BRG:

E-Commerce & OOR – owning the commercial marketing performance of our Out of Restaurant business, including delivery aggregators, digital ordering and click & collect; and

Digital Guest Growth – owning our CRM, loyalty, apps, paid digital, social media and digital guest journey.

This is not simply a communications role. The successful candidate will be expected to understand the numbers, identify commercial opportunities and turn them into action.

They will own the strategy, but equally be comfortable getting into the detail to make things happen.


Key Responsibilities

E-Commerce & OOR
Own the marketing strategy and commercial performance of BRG’s OOR and delivery channels across the portfolio.

This will include:

  • Develop and own the annual OOR growth and marketing strategy across BRG brands.
  • Own marketing relationships with key delivery aggregators and partners, including platforms such as Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat.
  • Build the promotional and activation calendar for delivery, ensuring activity balances revenue growth, guest acquisition and profitability.
  • Identify and develop compelling offers, bundles, exclusives and promotional mechanics that grow orders, frequency and average order value.
  • Own delivery media and advertising strategy, ensuring investment is targeted, measurable and continually optimised.
  • Work with Brand and Food teams to optimise digital menus, product hierarchy, photography, descriptions, merchandising and upsell opportunities.
  • Ensure campaigns and NPD are brilliantly executed across delivery platforms from day one.
  • Identify opportunities to grow direct ordering and reduce over-reliance on third-party channels where commercially appropriate.
  • Partner with Operations to improve the end-to-end delivery guest experience, including availability, accuracy, speed and customer satisfaction.
  • Work closely with Finance and Commercial teams to understand the economics of delivery and ensure marketing activity drives profitable incremental sales.
  • Lead test-and-learn activity across pricing, promotions, merchandising, media, bundles and customer journeys.
  • Produce clear weekly and monthly OOR reporting, translating performance data into actions and recommendations.
  • Maintain a strong understanding of competitor delivery strategies and emerging trends within QSR, casual dining and hospitality.

Previous hands-on experience of restaurant/QSR delivery, aggregators or a comparable food delivery environment is essential for this role.

CRM, Customer Data & Lifecycle Marketing

Own the CRM strategy across the BRG portfolio, moving our brands towards increasingly personalised, relevant and commercially effective guest communication.

Responsibilities include:

  • Build CRM strategies that drive acquisition, frequency, retention and reactivation.
  • Develop meaningful customer segmentation and lifecycle journeys.
  • Own the CRM calendar alongside Brand and Campaign teams.
  • Develop automated journeys across welcome, onboarding, repeat visit, lapsed guest, birthday and other relevant lifecycle moments.
  • Use customer behaviour and transaction data to improve targeting and personalisation.
  • Champion test-and-learn across subject lines, offers, audiences, channels, timing and creative.
  • Establish clear CRM KPIs including database growth, engagement, conversion, frequency, retention and customer lifetime value.

Apps & Loyalty

Own the commercial development and marketing performance of BRG’s consumer apps and loyalty propositions.

  • Develop strategies that increase app acquisition, active users, frequency and spend.
  • Ensure loyalty propositions are simple, compelling and commercially effective.
  • Build campaigns and journeys that move guests from acquisition through to habitual use.
  • Work closely with Technology and external platform partners on the development roadmap.
  • Use customer insight and behavioural data to identify opportunities to improve loyalty performance.
  • Ensure app and loyalty are embedded into wider brand campaigns rather than operating as standalone channels.
Own reporting and commercial performance of loyalty and app activity.

Paid Digital & Performance Marketing

Lead BRG’s paid digital approach across the portfolio.

  • Set the strategic direction for paid social, search, display and other performance channels.
  • Manage BRG’s paid media agency/agencies, ensuring clear objectives, effective briefing and strong commercial accountability.
  • Set appropriate KPIs and ensure activity is continually optimised against performance.
  • Ensure paid activity supports both brand building and short-term commercial objectives.
  • Develop attribution and reporting that gives the business a clearer understanding of return on marketing investment.
  • Champion experimentation and ensure learnings are shared across brands.

Social Media

Lead BRG’s strategic approach to social media, with the Social Media Manager reporting directly into this role.

  • Set clear objectives and channel strategies across the portfolio.
  • Support and develop the Social Media Manager, ensuring activity is commercially and culturally relevant.
  • Ensure organic and paid social work together as part of one connected strategy.
  • Develop clear measurement around reach, engagement, traffic, acquisition and commercial contribution.
  • Identify emerging platforms, formats and behaviours that BRG brands should be testing.

Kiosks & Digital Ordering

Own the marketing and guest experience of self-order kiosks and other digital ordering touchpoints.

  • Work alongside Operations, Technology, Food and Commercial teams to optimise kiosk journeys.
  • Use merchandising, product hierarchy, prompts and recommendations to improve conversion and spend per head.
  • Develop and test upsell and cross-sell mechanics.
  • Ensure promotional campaigns, NPD and brand priorities are reflected effectively within the kiosk journey.
  • Analyse behaviour and transaction data to continually improve the experience.

Digital Guest Journey

Act as the internal champion for the complete digital guest journey.

Consider the guest experience from:

Discovery → consideration → ordering/booking → purchase → experience → loyalty → repeat visit.

Identify friction and commercial opportunities across websites, search, social, CRM, apps, loyalty, kiosks, delivery platforms and digital ordering.

Work cross-functionally with Technology, Operations and Brand teams to ensure digital platforms are intuitive, connected and built around guest needs.

Commercial Performance & Reporting

This role will be accountable for creating a much clearer view of digital performance across BRG.

The Head of E-Commerce, Digital & Delivery Marketing will:

  • Establish clear KPIs and dashboards across OOR, CRM, loyalty, app, paid, social and digital ordering.
  • Own regular digital and OOR trading reviews.
  • Translate data into clear commercial actions rather than simply reporting results.
  • Identify opportunities to increase revenue, frequency, conversion, average transaction value and lifetime value.
  • Manage relevant digital and delivery marketing budgets.
  • Build business cases for investment in platforms, technology, media and customer propositions.
  • Create a culture of test, learn, optimise and scale.

Leadership & Ways of Working

As a senior member of the Marketing team, this role will work closely with:

Marketing Director | Brand & Campaign Teams | Operations | Food & Innovation | Technology | Finance | Commercial | Franchise Partners | External Agencies & Technology Partners

The role will lead and develop the Social Media Manager and provide digital expertise and leadership across the wider Marketing team.

They will need to be comfortable moving between long-term strategy and fast-paced trading decisions, challenging existing ways of working where there is a better commercial answer.


About You

We are looking for someone who combines digital expertise with genuine commercial instinct.

You will ideally have:

  • Significant digital, e-commerce, growth or performance marketing experience within a multi-site consumer business.
  • Essential: direct experience of food delivery and the restaurant/QSR delivery ecosystem.
  • Strong experience working with delivery aggregators and understanding their commercial and marketing models.
  • A proven track record of driving measurable digital revenue growth.
  • Strong CRM and customer lifecycle marketing experience.

  • Experience leading and developing people.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to influence at senior level.
  • Experience within hospitality, QSR, food delivery, retail or another high-frequency consumer environment.


The Person

You are:

Commercial – you care about revenue, margin, frequency and return, not vanity metrics.

Customer obsessed – you start with what makes the guest experience easier and better.

Data curious – you want to know why something worked, not simply that it worked.

A builder – you enjoy creating better processes, journeys and capabilities rather than simply maintaining what already exists.

Collaborative – you can bring Marketing, Operations, Technology and Commercial teams together around a common objective.

Comfortable at pace – hospitality moves quickly and you enjoy working in a trading-led environment.
