Amazon Sales E Commerce Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Princeton University Store is a self-sustaining, not-for-profit, member-based corporation that operates as a cooperative. It is affiliated with Princeton University but legally, financially, and operationally independent.

We operate two retail locations in Princeton, serve major campus and community events, and manage an ecommerce business that ships throughout the United States and internationally. The company is building a more integrated commerce model across stores, ecommerce, events, and partnerships.

Ecommerce is an important growth opportunity and a critical expression of The UStore’s merchandise, brand, and customer experience. The business requires comprehensive planning, consistent daily management, strong digital merchandising, accurate execution, and clear ownership of results.
