Shopify Plus Project Manager

About Blue Stout

Blue Stout is a fully remote digital agency helping 7–8 figure DTC brands grow through high-converting Shopify Plus experiences and performance email strategy. Since 2013, we've built and scaled stores for Shark Tank brands, Forbes 30 Under 30 founders, and $100M+ eCommerce companies.

We move fast, own outcomes, and don't hand-hold. High performance and radical ownership are non-negotiables here.

The Role

We're hiring a Shopify Plus Project Manager to lead end-to-end delivery of website builds, redesigns, and CRO projects for fast-growing eCommerce brands. You'll sit at the center of every project — managing clients, driving cross-functional teams, and keeping scope, timelines, and budgets locked in.

This is a client-facing, outcome-owning role — not a coordinator seat. You'll be expected to bring structure, judgment, and proactive communication from day one.

What You'll Own

• Lead full-cycle Shopify Plus site builds and redesigns from kickoff to launch
• Run weekly client calls, manage expectations, and keep stakeholders aligned
• Translate client goals into clear project plans, sprint priorities, and delivery milestones
• Coordinate internal designers, developers, QA, and email teams across time zones
• Maintain clean scope documentation — catch and escalate drift before it becomes a problem
• Track velocity, blockers, and deliverables using tools like Asana, ClickUp, or Trello
• Manage 3–5 active projects simultaneously without dropping balls
  

This Role Is NOT For You If…

• Your Shopify experience is limited to basic theme edits or template stores
• You've only worked in-house or as a solo freelancer — agency pace and multi-client juggling is different
• You need rigid process handbooks to do your job
• You're uncomfortable owning client relationships directly

How to Apply

Submit your application through Workable. Please include:

• Your CV or resume in English
• Any relevant case studies, client testimonials, or project examples
• A brief note on the most complex Shopify Plus project you've managed — what was the scope, the team size, and your role

Important: Include the phrase "Shopify Hero" in your application message to confirm you've read this post in full. Applications without it will not be reviewed.
