Growth and Performance Marketing Manager

Company Description

Oakwood Motor Company is a finance first used car dealership business based in Bury, with around 400 vehicles in stock and a strong focus on growth through better systems, stronger conversion, and more effective marketing.

Alongside Oakwood, we are also building connected automotive platforms in car finance and vehicle acquisition. This role sits inside a real operating business with real ad spend, real commercial accountability, and the opportunity to help shape a more disciplined growth engine across multiple brands.

Role Description

We are looking for a Growth and Performance Marketing Manager to help build and run the marketing engine for Oakwood Motor Company and a connected automotive platform spanning used car retail, car finance, and vehicle acquisition.

This is not a social media admin role and it is not a brand only role.

We need someone commercially sharp who can bring structure, ownership, and growth thinking across paid media, websites, landing pages, content, reporting, tracking, and conversion.

You will work directly with the owner and help turn marketing into a properly managed growth system.

The role includes responsibility for:

paid media and growth planning

landing page and website conversion improvement

reporting, attribution, and KPI tracking

creative and content pipeline coordination

testing priorities and performance reviews

management of specialist external support

building clearer structure across the wider platform

This is a hands on role with strong in person involvement in the business. It is primarily office based, with occasional flexibility to work from home when it makes sense for focused planning or reporting.

Qualifications

We are looking for someone with strong experience in:

growth marketing

performance marketing

conversion focused marketing

reporting and attribution

working with agencies, freelancers, or specialist contractors

turning marketing spend into measurable commercial outcomes

It is a strong advantage if you have experience in:

automotive

lead generation

multi brand businesses

landing page and funnel optimisation

founder led or fast moving businesses

This role is not right for someone who is mainly:

a social media manager

a content planner without performance accountability

a brand marketer without commercial depth

an agency account manager who prefers distance from execution
