eCommerce Recruitment

Our expertise in the eCommerce sector ensures we recruit top talent to help your business thrive in this competitive market.

What is the eCommerce industry?

eCommerce brands are some of the most recognised in the world, with retailers spanning from high street names to online only. It’s essentially defined as the online purchasing of goods from sectors such as fashion, beauty, furniture, electronics, food and beverages to name a few. The sector has matured from the days when online shopping was only for cheaper prices compared to offline. It now offers consumers access to leading brands and premium products with increased choice, fast shipping, reviews, coupons, customer services, overlap with offline and even helped progress VR and Ai to offer outstanding shopping experiences. This has made the UK the 3^rd largest eCommerce market in the world, behind the US and China.

How does the eCommerce industry work with recruitment agencies like ours?

Recruitment agencies are used to recruit for eCommerce jobs as demand for employees can surge due to seasonality or market changes and agencies are quick to respond because of the network of active and passive candidates. Whilst we can recruit effectively for eComm marketing jobs, the sector is built upon software platforms and marketplaces that require skilled technology, software and data candidates which we offer. Agencies like ours recruit for all roles in eCommerce teams, frequently building them and helping them scale because of the consultative nature of agencies allowing businesses to focus on selling products and generating revenue. Agencies can also give advice on the different levels of hiring and salary brackets to recruit the perfect candidate with the right level of experience.

Why does the eCommerce industry work with The Candidate?

The Candidate has a dedicated eCommerce recruitment team to recruit for eComm jobs which collectively has over 45 years recruitment experience. The team works collaboratively, assessing briefs, sharing candidates and working to quickly fill vacancies as we understand that briefs need to be filled quickly in this fast-paced industry. We’ve partnered with some of the most established brands and also scale ups to hire teams and roles across all seniorities. We use our knowledge to offer a consultative approach, advising clients on their hiring strategies, how to stage them and what the market can offer in terms of talent at any point in time.
