The role
You will be responsible for running multiple eCommerce projects from start to finish, working closely with designers, developers, account managers and clients.
Projects will vary a lot, some are small enhancements, others are large re-platforming programmes. Some are creative and design-led, others are more technical. If you like variety and problem solving, you will be well suited to this opportunity.

- Is comfortable managing technical digital projects
- Has experience delivering eCommerce or web based work
- Can confidently manage client expectations (including saying no when needed)
- Stay calm when things get messy or change direction

We need you to have:
- Magento, Shopify or other re-platforming experience
