Salary: £26250 plus commission
Who we are:
Shoptimised was created from a 'scratch your own itch' moment. Our co-founders, who were running a PPC Agency, were managing Google Shopping for over 50 clients with no control over the clients' Product Feeds. So, they looked around the market for a solution. Every software they found which came close to their requirements immediately priced them out so, they created exactly what they wanted: The Shoptimised Platform, which gives full Product Feed Optimisation control. Since then, we have expanded our offering and we are constantly innovating in order to stay competitive and give the best service to our clients.
Why Work for us?
Our friendly and approachable team are based in the Cobalt Business Park which has free parking onsite.Most of our team work full-time and our core business hours are 8am to 4pm Monday to Thursday with an early finish on Fridays. We pride ourselves on the family-first culture we have built and alongside a fair base salary and highly competitive commission scheme (details of which can be discussed at interview stage) we enjoy regular office fun days, bi-annual parties and awards and a very generous holiday allowance which grants staff 37 days of annual leave per year. Wellbeing is important to us which is why we have invested in a healthcare cash plan via Medicash for all staff alongside paid sick leave and enhanced maternity and paternity pay. We are also committed to staff development and progression and have exciting plans for a new internal learning programme to be rolled out this year.
