Job Descrption
Leading the merchandising and CRO efforts for one of the fastest growing e-commerce companies in the UK.
About Rise & Fall
We are one of the fastest growing startups in the UK and are soon to launch internationally. We’ve shipped over 100,000 products, tripling revenue last year, and are set to double it again this year.
We offer luxury clothing and homewares, but without the luxury prices. We connect our customers with the best manufacturers in the world so they can buy the highest quality goods straight from the factory floor at prices that are 40-80% less than usual.
We are the antithesis of fast fashion and serious about sustainability and conscious consumption. We are B Corp certified, have removed all hard chemicals from our supply chain and use mostly organic inputs (cottons, linens etc). Last year we donated over £20,000 to homelessness and women’s support charities.
We have been on a rocketship trajectory and are hugely ambitious. We’re on a mission to become one of the... largest luxury goods retailers in the world over the next 10 years, significantly reshaping the industry as we grow.
