Ecommerce Director
The director of ecommerce will probably have risen through the ranks in an ecommerce capacity or will be a time-served logistics and transport expert whose knowledge pre-dates the digital age. Either way, they are responsible for overseeing the whole ecommerce operation of a business, from customer experience right through to last mile fulfilment.
For that reason, delegation of tasks and the assembly or maintenance of a team of digital and logistics specialists will be a large part of the job. Because ecommerce and logistics are so tightly interwoven, businesses that seek an ecommerce director with fulfilment knowledge clearly understand the demands of the role, and should give their full support.
Looking at the bigger picture, the ecommerce director will be responsible for driving efficiency and profitability while maintaining extremely high customer satisfaction, which might be challenging but justifies the top salaries offered for the role.
The skills required
An analytical mindset is an essential component of the successful director of ecommerce. You’ll be spending a lot of time looking at figures and analysing trends to keep stock flowing from supplier to warehouse to fulfillment, without bottlenecks or seasonal disruption. This all feeds into consumer satisfaction, and keeps the business profitable.
The complexity of the task will mean you’ll know exactly when to delegate and when to take charge, and you’ll have assembled a trusted and dedicated team who understand your – and the company’s – long term goals. Communication skills and an ability to rigidly adhere to strategic plans are therefore strong attributes.
Ecommerce Director Jobs in County Fermanagh
County Fermanagh is the only Northern Irish county that does not encircle Lough Neagh, sitting as it does in the south western corner of the province. It shares more Irish county borders than Northern Irish, the only latter one being County Tyrone, the four Eire ones being Donegal, Leitrim, Cavan and Monaghan. The county town and county seat is Enniskillen, which, with 14,000 people, is the county’s most populous. The entire population of Fermanagh is less than 60,000. After Enniskillen, the next largest settlement is Lisnaskea, which is home to just over 2,500.
Much of Fermanagh is rural, with agriculture and tourism being its main sources of income. It does have a good set of physical connections with Eire as well as Northern Ireland, which does offer up the possibility of finding Ecommerce Director work in the county.
