About Plum Play
Fancy joining a growing team that gets to say their job is making childhood more fun? Plum Play is the active play specialist behind the trampolines, swings and climbing frames in gardens across more than 40 countries, and we're on the lookout for someone brilliant to help take our online business even further, across the UK and Australia.
We're a family-owned business at heart (founded in Lincoln back in 1988 and still going strong), which means real autonomy, real trust, and a team that knows each other by name rather than employee number. If you love ecommerce and want to work somewhere that's genuinely proud of what it makes, we'd love to hear from you.
About the role
A hands-on ecommerce role owning the day-to-day trading, marketing and platform performance of our online business across the UK and Australia. As well as owning trading and platform performance, you'll play a key role in building out our in-house ecommerce marketing team as we bring more activity in-house rather than relying on external agencies, hiring, developing and shaping a team that works well together. You'll work alongside an Amazon marketplace specialists, developers and Shopify experts based in both the UK and Australia, managing this mix of in-house resource directly. Some out-of-hours work is required to coordinate with the Australia team.
Strong, hands-on Shopify experience is essential for this role, including the ability to roll out and manage new Shopify storefronts as we expand into Europe and other international markets.
This is very much an in-person role, you'll be based at our Lincoln office full-time, working closely and collaboratively with the wider team day to day. It's a great fit for someone who thrives on being in the room with their team, not just connected to it.
