E-commerce Manager40 million people wear spectacles in the UK alone, but the optical industry hasn’t changed enough in three centuries. Products are tired, standards are mediocre, and the experience is dull. We’re going to change that, and build the world’s most customer-centric spectacles company. We are proud to be a Living Wage Employer and to be B Corp Certified.The RoleWe are looking for an E-Commerce Manager with a restless eye and a restless mind. Someone who can take our online presence — and beyond — and make it sharper, faster, more beautiful, and more profitable.You’ll live inside Shopify (ideally 2.0), speak Figma fluently, and prototype ideas in hours, not weeks. You’ll know what great design looks like, and have the conviction to protect it, while also living in the data, running experiments, and using technology (including AI) to make the experience smarter, slicker, and more personal.This is not a “maintain the status quo” role. You’ll have the autonomy to make big changes, the tools to test them, and the team to bring them to life.Your key responsibilities
  • Own, optimise, and evolve
- from UX to merchandising to under-the-hood performance
  • Manage and enhance our Shopify 2.0 setup, keeping it lightning fast and relentlessly user-friendly
  • Use Figma to design and test new experiences at speed, working hand-in-glove with design and dev
  • Tell our story online - products, craft, services - in a way that’s as elegant as the frames themselves
  • Run CRO experiments, backed by real insight from data, heatmaps, and user behaviour
  • Apply emerging tech and AI to personalise, automate, and generally make magic happen
  • Lead CRM strategy: journeys, broadcasts, and every interaction in between
RequirementsWhat we’re looking for:
  • 5+ years in e-commerce, ideally in premium or design-led retail
  • Demonstrable experience of managing your own priorities, managing others (directly or indirectly) and setting space
  • Deep Shopify experience (Shopify 2.0 a major plus)
  • Figma expertise and a love for rapid prototyping
  • An exceptional eye for design and detail - where pixel-perfect is the only acceptable standard
  • Proven ability to use tech and AI to solve problems and drive measurable results
  • Strong analytical skills, and the mindset that every decision should pay its own rent
  • Someone who thrives on autonomy, collaboration, and getting things done
