The ideal candidate understands both the creative aesthetics of consumer commerce and the data discipline required to scale performance profitably.

This is a revenue‑impacting role with direct accountability for online sales performance, conversion optimization, and assortment strategy.

Key Responsibilities

1. Product Sourcing & Curation
   • Identify, evaluate, and onboard suppliers aligned with brand positioning and margin targets.
   • Research trends across marketplaces, social platforms, and seasonal demand cycles.
   • Curate product assortments based on consumer demand, market trends, margin viability, and inventory velocity.
   • Negotiate pricing, MOQs, packaging, and lead times.
   • Develop seasonal and campaign‑based collections (e.g., Women’s Day, Easter, Festive Drops).
   • Ensure product‑market fit through competitor benchmarking and sales data analysis.
   • Maintain vendor performance tracking and backup supplier networks.
2. Store Management & Merchandising
   • Own end‑to‑end management of the e‑commerce store (Shopify/WooCommerce/Custom CMS).
   • Optimize homepage, category pages, and product pages for conversion, aesthetic alignment, cross‑sell and upsell opportunities.
   • Create seasonal storefront refreshes.
   • Implement pricing strategies (bundles, limited drops, flash sales).
   • Manage inventory visibility and stock forecasting.
   • Ensure SEO best practices for product listings.
   • Improve AOV through smart bundling and merchandising logic.
3. Campaign & Social Media Coordination
   • Collaborate with social media and content teams to align product launches with campaigns.
   • Translate trends from Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok into sellable products.
   • Plan campaign calendars with promotional mechanics, product drops, email push schedules, and landing page strategy.
   • Coordinate creatives for website banners, newsletter features, paid ad creatives, and social commerce integrations.
   • Track campaign performance and optimise in real time.
4. Trend Monitoring & Market Intelligence
   • Monitor competitor pricing and assortments.
   • Identify high‑performing product categories and emerging trends.
   • Track seasonal buying patterns.
   • Use analytics tools (GA4, Shopify analytics, Meta insights) to guide decisions.
   • Recommend product pivots based on performance data.
5. Growth & Revenue Optimization
   • Own revenue targets for the online store.
   • Identify growth levers: bundling, cross‑selling, retention programs, subscription models (if applicable).
   • Optimize checkout flows and reduce friction.
   • Collaborate on performance marketing strategies.
   • Develop testing roadmap (A/B tests on pricing, layout, messaging).

Required Qualifications

• 3–6+ years experience in e‑commerce management.
• Strong experience in product sourcing and vendor negotiation.
• Hands‑on experience with Shopify, WooCommerce, or similar platforms.
• Strong understanding of merchandising psychology and visual hierarchy.
• Proficiency in analytics tools (Google Analytics, Meta Ads Manager, CRM dashboards).
