We are on a mission to end Period Poverty in the UK
We believe that access to period products is a right, not a privilege. Access to free period products is something so simple yet so important and we are proud to be part of the change, part of the acknowledgement and part of the conversation. This is more than a job, it’s more than turning up 9 to 5, it’s more than just working in an amazing team… It’s about being part of a viable and growing start-up enterprise that is driving sustainable social change. Are you up for the challenge?
BUY ONE GIVE ONE
In the two years since Hey Girls was founded, we have donated over 10 million products across the UK.
MORE THAN JUST RETAILERS
We have over 200 donation partners that we work with who ensure that our products are received and given to girls and women in need.
WHAT'S NEXT?
We’re already working with partners on exciting new campaigns to raise awareness of period poverty and break down stigma. We’ll be adding new products to our range as period pants hit the shelves. And we are expanding the Hey Girls team into England.

Head of Sales & Marketing
As Head of Sales & Marketing you’ll be responsible for the development and implementation of our sales and marketing strategy, and you’ll oversee the day to day running of our sales and marketing teams. As a social enterprise, our mission is unpins everything that we do, and in this role you’ll work closely with our Founder & CEO to bring our vision to life.
In addition to upskilling the existing commercial team, the Head of Sales & Marketing will enjoy direct relationships with large and important customers, and continual search for new ones. Specifically, your duties will include:
- Overall accountability for company sales performance, business development, and marketing strategy and sales operations
- Delivering long term business objectives to ensure growth with all customers, including B2C, B2B – via wholesalers and distributers, and within the public sector
- Establishing a clear and measurable marketing strategy; and developing campaigns and KPIs in line with this.
- Designing, building and executing an effective pipeline to drive new business – covering all areas of inbound marketing, outbound business development activity and analysis, tracking and reporting.
- Maintaining and developing direct relationships with some important customers
- Continually seeking out new opportunities in the marketplace
- Managing relationships with external suppliers, agencies and partners, driving efficiencies and ROI
- Team leadership duties such as training, management and development
- Agreeing objectives and KPIs for team members in sales and marketing which meet business objectives and measuring performance against these
- Maintaining effective regular communication of sales activities, projects and achievements to the rest of the wider business
- Deputising for the CEO when required
Because we’re soon to grow into an international business, experience working internationally would be an advantage. However, to be considered for this role, you must be able to demonstrate:
- 5+ years’ experience acting a Senior Manager or ‘Head of’ level
- Previous experience of creating a commercial strategy and holding a multi-disciplinary team accountable to it
- The ability to think strategically, understand and analyse market trends, and identify opportunities
- Strong leadership experience, with demonstrable successes
- The ability to act under pressure with calmness and clarity of thought
- Experience in analysing and interpreting data
- Proven communication skills (written and verbal)
- Strong influencing and negotiation skills
- Evidence of being customer-focussed
- Excellent commercial and business acumen
In addition, you must be passionate not only about what we do, but why we do it. This is going to be a very exciting journey, and we look forward to our Head of Sales & Marketing joining the team!
"You will need to be totally 'on brand', remarkably innovative and have the most superb attention to detail – above all deliver to plan."
