Ecommerce Manager

Ecommerce Manager

We're hiring an Ecommerce Manager to take ownership of the entire ecommerce growth engine for a fast-growing ecommerce brand.

This role is responsible for driving growth across acquisition, conversion, retention, and customer experience. While paid media remains an important component of the role, success will be measured by overall ecommerce performance—not simply advertising metrics.

We're looking for someone who understands the complete ecommerce customer journey and can identify growth opportunities across every stage of the funnel. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable analyzing advertising performance, optimizing Shopify storefronts, improving conversion rates, influencing creative strategy, refining retention programs, and uncovering opportunities through customer behavior data.

While a dedicated creative team produces design assets and content, this role is expected to actively influence creative strategy, identify winning messaging angles, provide performance-driven recommendations, and collaborate closely with creative resources to improve campaign and website performance.

You'll work directly with company leadership and play a key role in shaping the company's ecommerce growth strategy.

• Present growth opportunities and strategic recommendations to leadership.

Shopify Store Optimization & CRO

• Own ongoing optimization of the Shopify storefront.
• Improve product pages, collection pages, landing pages, navigation structures, merchandising experiences, and checkout flows.

• Develop and execute conversion rate optimization initiatives.
• Test and optimize offers, bundles, upsells, cross-sells, product presentation, and purchase flows.
• Use customer behavior insights to improve website performance and user experience.

Creative Strategy & Performance Optimization

• Analyze creative performance across paid advertising and onsite experiences.
• Identify winning creative angles, messaging themes, and customer motivations.
• Develop creative testing hypotheses and recommendations.
• Collaborate with designers, copywriters, and content creators to improve campaign and website performance.
• Provide performance-driven guidance to creative resources based on data and customer behavior.

Paid Media Management

• Own and manage Meta Ads and Google Ads accounts.
• Develop campaign structures, audience strategies, testing frameworks, and scaling plans.

• Build custom audiences, lookalike audiences, retargeting campaigns, and prospecting strategies.
• Monitor and optimize campaign performance to improve ROAS and reduce CPA.
• Manage budget allocation across acquisition channels.
• Implement and maintain accurate tracking, attribution, pixels, Conversion APIs, and event tracking.

Retention Marketing

• Own performance analysis and optimization of email marketing programs.
• Manage customer segmentation, lifecycle campaigns, automated flows, and retention initiatives within Klaviyo.
• Optimize abandoned cart, browse abandonment, welcome series, win-back, and post-purchase campaigns.

• Improve engagement metrics, deliverability, and email-attributed revenue.

Technical SEO

Analytics & Customer Insights

• Monitor performance across acquisition, conversion, retention, and SEO channels.
