We have an exciting opportunity to join Booker as a Forecourt Proposition Manager, taking a leading role in shaping and developing our forecourt proposition across both major National Accounts and independent forecourt customers.

This is a commercially focused role within a significant area of the Booker business. You’ll work closely with some of our largest forecourt customers, understanding what they need from their range, promotions and seasonal activity and turning this into a proposition that delivers for their businesses and ours.

Working closely with National Account teams, Key Account Managers and our Trading teams, you’ll help ensure we have the right forecourt-specific ranges and promotional plans in place. From planning ahead for key seasonal periods to responding to changing customer and market needs, you’ll bring together customer insight, trading knowledge and commercial thinking to develop an offer that keeps us competitive.

You’ll also use market data and industry insight to create tailored materials and recommendations for our customers, helping them understand opportunities within the forecourt market and how Booker can support their growth.

While National Accounts will be a major focus, our independent forecourt retailers remain an important part of our business. You’ll ensure their needs are represented too, helping us build a strong forecourt proposition that works across our diverse customer base.

This is a field-based role with national travel, including time spent with customers and visiting the wider forecourt market.
