      • Collaborate with Performance Marketing on campaigns for the 1st party store.
         
  • Stakeholder and Vendor Management:

    • Act as the main point of contact for operational tasks with all external partners.
    • Manage day-to-day communications, escalations, and issue resolution.
       
  • Budget and Administrative Oversight:

    • Manage purchase orders and operational budgets, ensuring alignment with project goals and timelines.
    • Maintain comprehensive documentation for contracts, workflows, and decisions.

  • Proven experience in operations management or similar roles, preferably in e-commerce, digital products, or gift card initiatives.
  • Strong project management skills, with the ability to prioritize and deliver on multiple workstreams simultaneously.
  • Experience working with external partners and vendors to manage day-to-day operations and relationships.
