Ecommerce Operations Manager (Ecommerce/ General Manager Focus)
Chorley, Lancashire | Office based | £45,000 to £70,000 per year (dependent on experience) | Full time
About the Opportunity:
This is not a typical operations role. It is a unique opportunity suited to a specific type of person with a broad skill set and hands on ecommerce experience within a DTC brand.
Zachary Daniels are exclusively working with a growing gym wear brand founded in 2013. The business is profitable with zero debt and low overheads and is now positioned for its next phase of growth. The founder is stepping back from day to day operations, creating an opportunity for someone to take real ownership.
The Role:
While the title is Business Operations Manager, the role is closer to an Ecommerce Manager and General Manager combined. You will work closely with the founder and play a key role in running and scaling the business.
The focus is primarily ecommerce trading and growth, with a smaller portion covering operations and admin.
