What’s the biggest problem online retailers are facing in the digital era?
Loads of visits, shame about the sales.
This is where you come in.
They are looking for a strategic thinker not scared to pave the way as a one-man (or woman) band willing to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in with plans to start growing the CRO team next year. If you are someone looking for career progression, this would be a good foot in the door with a household name.
So let’s get on to the nerdy stuff then, what are the ideal skills required:
✊ Ability to influence change and work cross-functionally without line management responsibilities.
✊ You’ve scaled product programs before with a clear positive impact/output on revenue, and you’re bloody good at it too.
✊ You’re a strategic thinker with a commercial edge.
✊ A/B testing and MVTs are your bread and butter
✊ You can build tests, monitor them and feedback analysis of outcomes.
✊ You are not scared to “fail forwards”.
✊ You dream of Google Optimize/Analytics in your sleep.
✊ Once you get on Contentsquare (or equivalent) you’re in your element.
✊ You can read and code in front-end HTML/CSS and Javascript with ease
Well, what are you waiting for?
If it weirdly sounds specific to you (or not) I’d love to hear from you!
