Job description

Job Description - Director of Merchandising
Reports To: VP of E-Commerce
Location: Chico, CA Headquarters - open to remote for the right candidate
Position Summary
The Director of Merchandising leads the strategic transformation and day-to-day operation of AMain.com's merchandising, product content, third-party marketplace, and visual merchandising functions. This role is accountable for re-architecting the legacy Copywriting department into two purpose-built teams-Product Data and Merchandising-and elevating Photography into a true Visual Merchandising discipline.
Reporting to the VP of E-Commerce, the Director will partner closely with the broader E-Commerce, Reporting, and Inventory/Supply Chain teams to drive site conversion, marketplace growth, catalog quality, and a best-in-class customer product experience across AMain's owned digital properties and third-party channels.
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN & TRANSFORMATION
  • Department transformation: Lead the transition of the existing Copywriting department into two distinct, purpose-built functions: a Product Data team focused on catalog quality and a Merchandising team focused on commercial outcomes.
  • Visual merchandising evolution: Reimagine the current Photography function as a Visual Merchandising team responsible for product imagery, lifestyle and video assets, and on-site visual storytelling.
  • Roles & RACI: Redefine roles, responsibilities, workflows, and decision rights across all four teams; document new SOPs and handoffs with E-Commerce, Inventory, and Marketing.
  • Change management: Lead the people side of the transformation-communication, coaching, role mapping, and retention-so the change lands well with the existing team.
  • Org build-out: Partner with HR on leveling, comp structure, and career paths for the newly defined functions.

PRODUCT DATA & CATALOG MANAGEMENT
  • Data standards documentation: Build and maintain a product data style guide - title formula, description requirements, required attributes by product type, and image standards. This is the rulebook every person who touches product data works from.
  • Data quality & governance: Own product data quality, taxonomy, attribution, and cross-channel content standards across AMain.com and third-party marketplaces.
  • PIM strategy: Set the long-term Product Information Management strategy and operating model; partner with IT/Engineering on tooling decisions and integrations.
  • New item onboarding: Establish and hold SLAs for time-to-publish on new items, ensuring accurate attribution and complete content at launch.
  • Catalog completeness: Drive measurable improvements in coverage of required attributes, imagery, copy, and category mapping across the existing catalog.

ONSITE MERCHANDISING
  • Site experience: Drive performance of category pages, PDPs, search, navigation, and on-site recommendations to grow conversion, AOV, and attach rate.
  • Promotional execution: Plan and execute on-site promotions, hero placements, and category storytelling that align with inventory position and margin goals.
  • Test & learn: Build a disciplined merchandising test-and-learn agenda with the E-Commerce team to continuously improve commercial outcomes.
  • Measurement baseline: Establish baseline metrics for category conversion rate, search conversion rate, zero-result rate, and filter usage. Every merchandising decision after that is evaluated against these baselines.

THIRD-PARTY MARKETPLACES
  • Channel leadership: Oversee the Manager of Third-Party Marketplaces and set strategy across Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and other relevant channels.
  • Listings & content: Own listing quality, content syndication, A+/Enhanced Brand Content, and channel-specific merchandising standards.
  • Channel economics: Partner with Finance and Inventory on channel margin, fee management, and FBA/MCF/3PL allocation decisions.
  • Growth & expansion: Identify and prioritize new channel, program, and geographic opportunities aligned with AMain's strategic plan.

VISUAL MERCHANDISING
  • Creative standards: Set and enforce creative standards for product photography, lifestyle imagery, and video across the catalog and brand.
  • Studio operations: Drive studio throughput, shot productivity, and cost-per-asset; build the production calendar against new-item flow and merchandising priorities.
  • Brand alignment: Align visual output with brand strategy, category positioning, and the broader site experience.
  • Shot list standard: Define a required shot list per product type - white background hero, front-on, scale reference, in-use/lifestyle, and what's-in-the-box. The goal is images that answer customer questions before they ask them, not just consistent angles.

CROSS-FUNCTIONAL COLLABORATION
  • Inventory & supply chain: Work closely with Shawn Ireland's team on inventory health, sell-through, OOS recovery, and overstock plans-ensuring merchandising decisions reflect the true inventory position.
  • Marketing alignment: Coordinate with Marketing on storytelling, campaign assets, vendor co-op execution, and on-site/off-site alignment.
  • E-Commerce & Dev: Serve as primary product owner for merchandising-related development work translating business needs (sort logic, schema, category architecture) into clear technical requirements.

SEO & Discoverability
  • Organic discoverability: Own or directly partner on AMain's organic search performance ensuring product data, category structure, and schema markup translate to discoverability, not just on-site conversion.
  • Structured data (schema): Ensure product, breadcrumb, review, and organization schema is implemented correctly and comprehensively. AMain's rich results are a competitive advantage protect and expand them.
  • Search Console monitoring: Own or assign daily monitoring of Google Search Console across all sites - indexing health, rich result errors, crawl anomalies, and CTR performance.
  • Competitive discoverability: Maintain awareness of how AMain ranks vs. key competitors on target product queries and use this to prioritize content and category work.

Requirements
  • 8-10+ years of e-commerce merchandising experience with progressive leadership responsibility
