The Knix eCommerce Team is looking for a Senior Manager, Site Merchandising to lead and evolve the onsite experience as a primary driver of revenue, conversion, and customer acquisition.

Reporting into the Director of Site Merchandising, this role is both strategic and highly operational — you will be responsible for defining how customers discover, evaluate, and purchase across the site, while ensuring execution at speed and quality in a fast-paced environment.

You will be responsible for executing the end-to-end onsite merchandising strategy, from homepage and navigation to product discovery, launches, and conversion optimization. This includes translating business goals into clear onsite priorities, leveraging data to identify opportunities, and driving cross-functional execution across Growth, Product, Creative, and Analytics.

This role requires a leader who can operate as a business owner of the site experience — balancing customer experience, brand storytelling, and commercial performance.

  • Experience performing in-depth funnel analysis and customer journey mapping using tools like Amplitude or HotJar to identify and resolve site friction.

  • Establish a test-and-learn culture with clear hypotheses and measurable impact

    • Day-to-Day Site Operations Excellence

  • Accountable to daily site health:

  • Product setup, launches, promotions, and QA
