Director of Digital Commerce
 
We are seeking an experienced Director of Digital Commerce to lead the continued growth and evolution of our client’s online business in Houston, TX. This position will provide strategic direction and day-to-day leadership across e-commerce operations, digital merchandising, website performance, paid media, email marketing, analytics, and the overall online customer experience.
 
Reporting into company leadership and managing an E-Commerce Specialist, the Director will set priorities, guide execution, monitor performance, and ensure digital initiatives support broader business goals. The ideal candidate is a strong leader who understands how to execute within Shopify and related digital platforms, but is equally comfortable delegating responsibilities, developing team members, and maintaining accountability for results. This role is well suited for someone who can operate at both the strategic and tactical levels—setting the vision and direction for the e-commerce function while remaining willing and able to step in when needed.

• Analyze website performance, customer behavior, campaign results, and digital marketing data to identify trends and growth opportunities
• Establish and monitor key e-commerce performance indicators, including traffic, conversion rates, average order value, customer engagement, and return on advertising spend
• Partner with cross-functional teams to plan and execute product launches, promotional campaigns, seasonal initiatives, and broader marketing strategies
• Identify opportunities to improve website functionality, SEO performance, conversion optimization, and the overall digital customer journey
• Translate performance data into clear recommendations, priorities, and actionable business strategies
• Evaluate emerging e-commerce technologies, AI tools, digital marketing trends, and industry best practices
• Remain knowledgeable and capable of supporting hands-on execution within Shopify, email marketing, paid media, merchandising, and reporting when business needs require it
 
Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, Advertising, or a related field required
• Progressive e-commerce experience, including responsibility for strategy, performance, and digital growth
• Previous experience leading, mentoring, or managing e-commerce, merchandising, marketing, or digital team members
