JOIN OUR TEAM
Ecommerce Assistant
UV Skinz sells peace-of-mind from the sun’s damaging rays. We manufacture UV protective sunwear for all ages and make it a top priority to provide the highest quality, fashionable and affordable UPF 50+ sun protection apparel products on the market. The company was founded after the owner lost her 32-year-old husband to melanoma and was left to raise their three little boys on her own. This gave her the drive and determination to bring products to the market that can help families live sun safe while never forgetting how important it is to LIVE and HAVE FUN outdoors.
During our seventeen-year history we have demonstrated consistently strong growth in sales and company branding and we are in search of people with talent and passion that like teaming up with other highly motivated employees to get the job done, using their own creative genius. We are seeking a full-time person who can take on the role of Ecommerce Assistant for our fast-growth company.
The Ecomm Assistant will report to the IS Manager and can roll up their sleeves and jump in as support to all areas of ecommerce operations and quality assurance of the company’s online presence, provide feedback to the internal teams and work with third party vendors.
The ideal candidate will be a self-starter, have a high level of flexibility and commitment, and strong social and communication skills. This person will demonstrate a creative and unique mindset but also have the ability to focus on business metrics and monitor performance to ensure business goals are achieved.
For the right candidate, there is tremendous opportunity for growth, and an opportunity to be a part of something bigger than themselves. Excellent pay and benefits depending on experience.
