Senior Ecommerce Manager

Department: Digital Marketing

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Manchester

We’re looking for a highly commercial and hands‑on Senior Ecommerce Manager to own the day-to-day performance and continued development of REFY’s global DTC ecommerce business.

Reporting into the Head of Digital, you will lead ecommerce trading across our regional Shopify stores, turning performance data into clear actions and owning a prioritised roadmap across trading, CRO, UX, SEO and technical development. This is a hands‑on leadership role: you’ll develop and support the Ecommerce Manager and future Executives while remaining close enough to the detail to analyse performance, troubleshoot issues and execute directly when required.

You’ll be equally comfortable reviewing weekly trading performance with senior leadership, building a business case for additional investment, briefing a development agency, interrogating GA4 or Shopify data and making changes within Shopify yourself.

• Remain hands‑on within Shopify
  , with strong working knowledge of products, collections, merchandising, content, promotions, inventory availability, site configuration and day‑to‑day ecommerce operations. This role should be able to step directly into execution when required.
• Own website readiness for key trading moments
  , including launches, promotional periods and Black Friday, ensuring products, stock, pricing, merchandising, content, functionality and customer journeys are accurate and commercially optimised.
• Own the development agency relationship and technical roadmap
  , writing clear briefs, prioritising development resource, challenging estimates, managing retainers and additional project costs and ensuring work is delivered to the required standard.
• Lead REFY’s CRO and onsite optimisation roadmap
  , creating a structured test‑and‑learn roadmap across PDPs, navigation, discovery, checkout, onsite education, cross‑sell, upsell, bundles and other opportunities to improve conversion and AOV.
• Own the ecommerce SEO roadmap alongside specialist agency support and Head of Digital
  , ensuring work is prioritised across technical health, relevance/content, authority/trust and onsite experience, with clear actions, ownership and measurement. SEO should be treated as an ongoing commercial growth workstream rather than solely a content exercise.
• Maintain an omnichannel view of digital performance
  , understanding DTC alongside retailer ecommerce and bricks‑and‑mortar performance to identify changes in customer behaviour, channel mix and potential…
