eCommerce Placement exclusively recruits within digital commerce. We place eCommerce Managers across DTC, retail, Amazon, and marketplace businesses throughout the US, Canada, and UK.
What We Place
The eCommerce Manager is the hands-on operator who keeps the digital business running, optimized, and growing on a day-to-day basis.
This role sits below a Director or VP and typically manages one or more specific eCommerce functions: site operations, digital merchandising, marketplace accounts, or digital marketing. They are the executors who turn strategy into results — managing PDPs, running A/B tests, overseeing agency partners, and pulling analytics to identify growth opportunities.
Manager Specializations
The eCommerce Manager title covers a wide range of specializations. We recruit across all of them.
Owns the overall DTC site experience, operations, and performance. Broad generalist role.
Manages Amazon Seller or Vendor Central, Walmart, Target+, or other third-party marketplace accounts.
Owns product assortment, digital merchandising, PDP quality, and online catalog strategy.
Manages paid search, SEO, email, and paid social to drive traffic and on-site conversion.
Runs A/B testing programs, analyzes conversion funnels, and drives data-driven site improvements.
Manages backend operations, tech integrations, fulfillment coordination, and systems management.
