We're excited to be partnering exclusively with a well-established distributor of premium home and kitchen brands to find a motivated Shopify / Ecommerce Trading Specialist to join their growing in-house marketing team.

With over 40 years of success in the UK, the company works with a carefully selected portfolio of design-led, premium consumer brands sold through national retailers, independent stores and their own direct-to-consumer ecommerce platforms.

This role is perfect for junior digital marketers, ecommerce assistants, or Shopify entrepreneurs who want to develop their commercial ecommerce skills in a supportive, fast-growing environment.

If you enjoy optimising online stores, analysing performance, and finding new ways to grow ecommerce sales, this is a fantastic opportunity to build your career in ecommerce trading.

  • Help plan and deliver ecommerce sales strategies across Shopify stores and digital channels.
  • Track and analyse key metrics such as conversion rate, traffic, and average order value to identify opportunities for growth.
  • Assist with product uploads, merchandising, and content updates to ensure websites look great and perform well.
  • Support the management of promotional campaigns and digital trading calendars.
  • Work closely with the marketing team to optimise content and improve conversion rate optimisation (CRO).
  • Monitor product performance and support stock planning to keep bestselling items available.
  • Collaborate with operations and customer service teams to ensure a smooth customer experience.

We're looking for someone who:

  1. Has 1-3 years experience in digital marketing, ecommerce, or Shopify, OR has built/managed their own Shopify store or online brand.
  2. Is curious about how online stores grow and convert customers.
  3. Has a basic understanding of Shopify, ecommerce platforms, or website CMS tools.
  4. Is comfortable looking at Google Analytics or similar tools to understand performance.
  5. Has some knowledge or interest in SEO, ecommerce merchandising, or CRO.
  6. Is organised, detail-focused, and eager to learn.
  7. Enjoys working in a collaborative marketing team.

Why you should apply for this role:

  • Work with premium lifestyle brands with strong reputations.
  • Gain hands-on experience in Shopify ecommerce and digital trading.
  • Develop commercial ecommerce skills early in your career.
  • Join a friendly, growing marketing team where ideas are valued.
