Position Summary
Why join our team?
This is an opportunity to be part of a fun and dynamic team, who have been part of a digital transformation. The ‘Direct to Consumer’ department has grown significantly over the past few years, evolving Samsung.com from a traditional brochure-ware site, into a fully-fledged e-Commerce site. Your role will be in the dotcom team, which sits within the wider Direct to Consumer department. You will benefit from being close to the core customer data and all elements of the customer experience.
Our focus in this team is to grow our ‘closed user group’ (CUG) websites. These consist of various websites that offer discounted pricing for select audiences, including students, key workers, professionals etc. These sites sit separately from the main Samsung.com site, and need to be regularly maintained and optimised, to surface our competitive pricing and offers, and ensure the best possible user experience. While this role will mainly focus on CUG sites, you may also need to support on mainsite, App & B2B sites.
The successful candidate will need to work very closely with the marketing and commercial teams, to understand the changing business priorities. This will involve non-stop conversations about trading priorities, product launches and promotional and brand campaigns. Constantly thinking about how we can best position our products to increase traffic, conversion rate, average order value and sales.
