Digital Marketing & Retail Apprentice

Tabletop Dominion is looking for a capable, enthusiastic apprentice who wants to build a career in digital marketing while playing a practical role in a specialist retail business. You will help grow our online reach, ecommerce sales and customer community while also supporting the everyday operation of our store.

• Plan, create, schedule and publish useful, on-brand content across relevant social channels.
• Support SEO, PPC, paid social, organic social, content marketing and email campaigns.
• Use Google Ads and relevant Google tools, including Analytics, Merchant Center and Search Console, to support
  campaigns, product visibility and performance reporting.
• Monitor core commercial and marketing measures such as traffic, engagement, conversion, return on ad spend, revenue,
  margin and average order value; explain what the numbers suggest and recommend next steps.
• Research and contact suitable influencers, creators, clubs and community partners; maintain professional outreach and
  follow-up.
• Create simple graphics and campaign assets using Adobe Creative Suite and/or Canva.
• Capture basic product photography and short-form photo/video content, then complete straightforward editing, resizing,
  captioning and preparation for web or social use.
• Develop confident, practical use of AI systems and large language models such as ChatGPT and Claude across marketing,
  research, outreach, ecommerce, analysis, drafting and day-to-day workflow improvement.
• Explore how AI can improve the quality, consistency and scale of the company's outreach while preserving an authentic
  brand voice and appropriate human judgement.
• Treat AI output as a working draft rather than an unquestioned source: verify facts, prices, product details, claims,
  calculations, tone, copyright considerations and suitability before use or publication.
• Build transferable AI literacy as an important part of future professional development within marketing and the wider industry.
• Maintain accurate, attractive product listings, collections, pricing, images and promotional content on Shopify and related
  website systems.
• Support onsite merchandising, landing pages, product launches, basic website updates and conversion improvements.
• Check product information carefully and help identify broken links, stock discrepancies or customer journey issues.

  work accurately, protect products appropriately, select and apply the correct paperwork or labels, meet collection cut-offs and
  raise stock, address or order issues promptly.
• Welcome customers, understand their needs and provide friendly, knowledgeable product guidance and appropriate
  recommendations.
• Operate the till/POS, process cash and card payments accurately, and handle routine customer enquiries, returns or issues
  in line with company policy.
• Answer telephone, email and online enquiries where required and maintain professional communication throughout.
• Build trust with newcomers, established players, parents, collectors and event participants while helping create an inclusive
  store environment.
• Handle the buying and trading-in of cards with customers, following all company authorisation, identification, record-keeping
  and transaction processes.
• Assess card condition consistently and use approved company systems, market data and processes to research pricing and
  valuation; escalate unusual, high-value or uncertain items.
• Explain offers and transactions clearly and professionally without making unauthorised commitments.
• Sort, catalogue, organise, sleeve, protect and store cards accurately, maintaining security and traceability.
• Support singles inventory, stock updates, presentation and fulfilment while treating customer property and high-value stock
  with care.
