Summary

Dedicated eCommerce professional with over three years of hands-on experience at BS Fixings, where I’ve developed a broad skill set across product content management, feed optimisation, UX improvements, email marketing, platform management, supplier onboarding and agency coordination. I’m used to taking ownership of complex tasks, learning quickly and finding practical solutions. I’m now looking to bring my experience into a larger, more established eCommerce team where I can continue to grow and develop alongside experienced specialists.
