- Checkout & Onsite Optimization: Collaborate on optimizing checkout experiences (Checkout Blocks/extensibility), product page messaging, mobile navigation, cross-sells, and post-purchase upsell flows.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner directly with the brand marketing, creative, and technical development teams to translate winning test variations into permanent, production-safe builds.

- Reporting & Commercial Insights: Track test outcomes transparently. Present clear, plain-English findings to leadership—highlighting both winning implementations and valuable learnings from failed tests.

Requirements & Qualifications

- Experience: 3+ years of dedicated experience running Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO), digital analytics, and user experience (UX) testing for high-volume ecommerce/DTC brands.

- Shopify Ecosystem Knowledge: Hands-on experience with Shopify or Shopify Plus environments, understanding cart, PDP, and checkout dynamics.

- Communication: Exceptional written and spoken English communication skills. Comfortable presenting trade-offs, technical briefs, and data findings directly to brand leadership.

- Schedule & Availability: Available to work ~20 hours per week with consistent daily overlap with UK working hours.

Preferred / Nice-to-Haves
