THE ASK:
Partner with Head of ECOM/Marketing on marketing plan, web content, email, social. Develop an analytical framework and sound understanding of product gaps, customer needs and identify new prospective sellers. The market opportunity spans both the Caribbean and Central America with an owned logistics and delivery operation in place servicing the island countries, driven by an aggressive but structurally sound deployment plan.
The Head of Marketplace must ensure that the platform hosts an optimized assortment strategy that maximizes sales and margin at a product, category, country and region level through channel specific plans.

You must possess strong analytical acumen and be comfortable generating and evaluating various forecasts, metrics, and analyses. You must be curious, a self starter, and be adept at problem-solving and managing multiple priorities effectively and efficiently. Strong communication skills (both oral and written) are critical.
