We're looking for a driven and detail-focused Ecommerce Executive to join our growing ecommerce team. Reporting to the Ecommerce Manager, this is a great opportunity for someone early in their ecommerce career to gain hands-on experience across a portfolio of 7 Shopify websites spanning Football, Tennis, Sports, Leisurewear and Motor Racing. You'll play a key role in the day-to-day trading of our sites, working closely with the wider ecommerce, buying and marketing teams to keep our product offering fresh, accurate and optimised for conversion.

This role suits someone who's comfortable getting into the detail – creating and maintaining products, managing collections, and keeping our sites trading smoothly – while also being curious about the bigger picture of paid media, CRM and site performance.

What you'll do:

• Create, update and maintain product listings across our Shopify sites, ensuring accurate pricing, descriptions, imagery and categorisation
• Build and manage collections and merchandising to support trading priorities, promotions and seasonal campaigns
• Support the day-to-day trading of our 7 ecommerce sites, keeping content, stock visibility and site navigation accurate and up-to-date
• Assist with the planning and execution of paid media activity across Google Ads and Meta Ads
• Support CRM activity through Omnisend, helping to build and schedule campaigns and flows
• Support with partner communications, providing updates on campaign and sales data
• Use Excel, including pivot tables and formulas, to analyse sales, stock and trading data and turn it into clear, actionable insight
• Assist with website, channel and trade reporting to identify opportunities for improvement and optimisation
• Implement A/B testing across sites to improve user experience and conversion rates
• Work closely with the buying, marketing and customer service teams to ensure a joined-up approach across each brand
• Support the wider ecommerce function with ad hoc trading, reporting and administrative tasks as required
• Help maintain a high standard of site housekeeping, including broken links, out-of-stock messaging and seasonal updates

Who you are:

• Some experience working with Shopify, or another ecommerce platform, gained through previous employment, a placement or personal projects
• Good working knowledge of Excel, including pivot tables and formulas, with a genuine interest in using data to inform decisions
• Exposure to, or an interest in, Google Ads and Meta Ads
• Awareness of, or an interest in, CRM/email marketing platforms such as Omnisend
• An understanding of SEO to ensure each website is optimised to help with organic discovery
• An interest in conversion rate optimisation (CRO) would be an advantage, though not essential
• Highly organised, with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple sites and priorities at once
• Analytically minded, with a natural interest in numbers, trends and customer behaviour
• A proactive, can-do attitude and a willingness to get stuck into the detail of day-to-day trading
• Good communication skills and the ability to work well as part of a small, fast-paced team
• A passion for sport and an interest in the sportswear industry would be advantageous
