About Tradezone
Tradezone is the fastest growing electrical wholesaler in Australia. We launched in **** and today operate six state-of-the-art distribution centres across Australia - supplying electrical, solar, HVAC, data and safety products to trade professionals nationwide, with more sites to come.
We are a division of the Kingston Group, a private, family-owned Australian company that has been wholesaling and distributing for over 40 years. We combine the strength of a national business with the culture of a close-knit team, and pride ourselves on being at the forefront of technology and innovation - from our real-time online platform, live stock visibility, to our own national delivery fleet with live delivery tracking.
We are also operating in one of the most exciting industries in the country right now. Solar, batteries, EV charging and the electrification of everything are rewriting how Australia is powered, and we sit right in the middle of it.
Why this role is different
Most marketing manager roles come with a modest budget and a brief to make the most of it. This one does not. This is a unique opportunity with a hands-on remit.
Our supplier partners invest substantial marketing funds with Tradezone every year. You will own that investment end to end - identifying opportunities, negotiating with the biggest brands in the industry, planning the strategy, allocating and ensuring accurate financial accountability. You will transform these investments into campaigns with genuine national reach: roadshows, radio, digital, sponsorship, events and merchandise.
This is a commercial leadership role with a creative department alongside you - NOT a creative role simply managing resources.
You will engage with senior executives from the industry's largest and most iconic brands, while embracing the challenge of driving outcomes for Tradezone that deliver an exceptional ROI

What we're looking for
Significant marketing experience, including time leading a team — ideally in B2B, trade, wholesale or distribution
Experience securing and deploying supplier, vendor or co-operative marketing funds at scale

Commercial sharpness: you can build a business case, model a return, and hold your own in a negotiation
Strong digital fundamentals across SEO, paid search, EDM,
social and eCommerce
The discipline to account for every dollar while truly maximising value of our marketing spend
Someone proactive by nature. In this role, waiting costs money.
What's on offer
A genuinely national remit, with real budget and real autonomy
An Executive Level role reporting into the Managing Director, offering the opportunity to act as a key decision maker and deliver influential business outcomes.
The chance to build a marketing function that scales with the business, and to grow with it
A package based on your experience and what you bring to the table
