Ecommerce Manager - #189149
Sofa Club
Date: 2 weeks ago
City: Watford
Contract type: Full time
Role Overview
As Ecommerce Manager, you’ll play a key role in bringing Sofa Club to life online, owning the day-to-day performance of sofaclub.co.uk - from the trading calendar and on-site experience through to conversion and revenue. You’ll work closely with our Digital Marketing Director (paid, SEO, and owned channels), forming a collaborative ecommerce team that reports into the Group Ecommerce Director.
This is a hands-on role where you’ll turn strategy into action. The Group Ecommerce Director sets the direction and overall goals, and you’ll bring this to life on site, making sure everything lands smoothly, performs well, and continues to evolve. You’ll have clear goals around revenue, conversion rate, and AOV, with plenty of opportunity to make a real impact.
Your perspective really matters here. We’re looking for someone who brings ideas, curiosity, and a strong digital instinct, someone who’s always spotting what’s working, what could be better, and where the next opportunity lies. You’re proactive, thoughtful, and enjoy getting stuck in - someone who doesn’t just execute, but helps shape what comes next.
Key Responsibilities
Site Trading & Merchandising
We’re not looking for traditional ecommerce managers. We’re building a team of commercially-driven, style-aware operators who think differently, move quickly, and deliver impact.
You’ll thrive here if you:
