About the Role
TALA, known for activewear that keeps up with busy lifestyles, has been on a rocket ship since its founding in 2019 by entrepreneur Grace Beverley. Built on largely organic socials, today we are a digital-first, multichannel women's athleisure brand with a multi faceted growth and retention strategy, trading on impressive numbers. TALA recently opened a 2,000-square foot, double fronted Store on London's iconic Carnaby Street as part of our ambitious growth strategy, backed by a recent funding round.
We're looking for an Ecommerce Manager to join us on a fixed term basis (July 2026 - April 2027), covering a period of planned leave. Our digital roadmap, agency relationships and testing programme are all well established, this isn't a role where you'll be building from scratch. What we need is a technically confident, commercially sharp operator who can step in, take full ownership and execute with pace and precision from day one.
Day to day you'll own our ecommerce trading performance and reporting, manage our development sprint cycle, run our A/B testing programme, drive SEO and localisation delivery, working closely with our Digital Coordinator and our development, SEO and CRO agencies.
This is a full time role, based at our office in SW London (hybrid - 3 days in office). Reports to: Commercial Director.
