Data-Driven Merchandising & Performance

  • Use data to inform decisions around product placement, bundling strategies, and set creation
  • Analyze product, collection, and bundle performance across the catalog
  • Own regular merchandising performance reporting and share insights with key stakeholders
  • Continuously test and optimize merchandising strategies to improve conversion rate, AOV, and product discovery

Qualifications

  • 3–6+ years of ecommerce merchandising experience, ideally within DTC consumer brands (beauty, fashion, or lifestyle preferred)
  • Strong understanding of onsite merchandising, product launches, and catalog management
  • Proven experience using data and reporting to guide merchandising decisions
  • Hands-on experience with Shopify or similar ecommerce platforms
  • Strong cross-functional communication skills and experience partnering with Growth and Creative teams
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple launches and priorities simultaneously

Nice to Have

  • Experience building bundles, kits, and promotional merchandising strategies
  • Familiarity with analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Looker, or similar
  • Experience supporting subscription-based products
