About the Role

Our client is a fast-growing online footwear brand with a strong international presence and a proven track record of marketplace success, including a well-established operation on Amazon. They sell exclusively online and are now ready to break into the Latin American market, replicating and adapting their marketplace strategy for the region's unique platforms, consumer behaviors, and logistics landscape.

We are looking for a results-driven eCommerce Specialist with deep knowledge of the LATAM digital commerce ecosystem to lead this expansion from the ground up. The ideal candidate is fluent in both Spanish and English, understands how to position a brand on platforms like MercadoLibre, and knows what it takes to take a product catalog from zero to revenue in new markets. If you've helped a brand break into Latin America or you know exactly how to, this role was built for you.

- Use data insights to continuously improve listings, campaigns, and overall channel performance

Operations & Coordination

- Stay current on platform policy changes, local regulations, and emerging LATAM eCommerce trends
