About the Company

The company is a lifestyle and retail business offering a carefully curated collection of fashion, beauty, homewares, accessories, children’s products, and lifestyle goods from brands selected for their quality, purpose, sustainability, and thoughtful design.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Digital Marketing Specialist / Shopify Specialist to take ownership of company's online store and help drive stronger e-commerce performance.

The primary focus of this role is Shopify and conversion rate optimization — improving the website experience, merchandising, product presentation, SEO, and customer journey to turn more existing website traffic into customers.
