About the Role
Join our journey to create a new experience for The National Lottery and help us power change for the greater good. We are Allwyn UK, part of the Allwyn Entertainment Group, a multi-national lottery operator with a market-leading presence across Europe including the Czech Republic, Austria, Greece, Cyprus and Italy. While The National Lottery’s main contribution to society is through funds to good causes, at Allwyn we put our purpose and values at the heart of everything we do. We are embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime, large-scale transformation journey to create a National Lottery that delivers more money to good causes.

The Retail Sales Team are the face of The National Lottery to existing retailers, supporting them to increase returns to good causes by driving sales, retailer training, and ongoing management of the retail estate. As a Retail Growth Executive, you will own territory management, building and maintaining strong relationships with retailers within your assigned area. You will deliver retail revenue and marketing plans by supporting and growing in-store standards and advocating the commercial value of The National Lottery to drive sales and returns to good causes.

Key responsibilities include:
- Developing a strong understanding of your territory, retailers, and competitors to drive sales and returns to good causes
- Supporting the Annual Business Plan by delivering key messages and marketing updates to the retail network
- Supporting Retail Sales Team objectives and reviewing progress against agreed measures, working cross-territory and divisionally as required
- Bringing retail insight and new ways of working into Allwyn
- Delivering Retail Key Performance Indicators through ownership of territory management plans and preparing store visits
- Proactively driving high in-store standards and delivering key messages
- Building and maintaining great relationships to ensure excellent in-store execution and retailer advocacy
- Ensuring retailers comply with necessary player protection through the Retail Training Centre (RTC)
- Driving your own development through a Personal Development plan and Allwyn’s Learning and Development programme

Experience
Previous sales or customer service experience is required; field sales experience is desirable but not essential. Proven ability in face-to-face consultative selling is important. Experience in using IT packages and flexibility in adapting to different software is expected. Ability to analyse data and provide insights to customers is also required.

About you
You are confident and articulate, able to build strong relationships with retailers through a consultative approach. You bring new ideas to the table and have strong sales and commercial acumen. You are able to deliver effective training to people at all levels. Flexibility to travel across your territory and wider regions is essential.

Qualifications
A full UK driving licence is required to enable travel across your territory and wider regions when needed.
