Experience of how CRM planning can be integrated within and across social channels would also be of interest.

Working as part of a cross-functional, agile, customer focussed team, you will be responsible for ensuring that all CRM activities are prioritised according to business strategy and can deliver a consistent experience that is fully in line with the wider Greggs brand strategy and objectives.

We believe in growing together – as a united team and working towards the achievement of our vision which is to be a winning brand in the food-on-the-go market. Greggs is a much loved and trusted brand with a strong traditional bakery heritage.  Our people are what makes our business successful.
