Bloom is a full-service workplace design consultancy, proudly supporting Poppy & Peonies in their search for a Director of Ecommerce to join their dynamic team. As Talent Advisors, we serve as the bridge between our Bloom Partner and you throughout the recruitment process. At Bloom, we don’t rely on automated tools to sift through applications—every resume is carefully reviewed by a real person to ensure a fair and consistent interview process. If selected, you’ll join Poppy & Peonies directly as a valued member of their team. We’re excited to consider your application! Please note that applications will be accepted throughout the holiday season. Thank you for your patience and interest in this opportunity!

Hi, I’m Natalie Dusome, Founder and CEO of Poppy & Peonies, a fun and energetic brand that believes styles and function should co-exist. We’re passionate about creating practical pieces that help make life a little easier and lighten the load, literally.

Building Poppy & Peonies has been a wild adventure. The journey began when my daughter Poppy was born and my accessories no longer worked with my new life as a mom, I needed bags with pockets and organization that looked cool and had functionality. I couldn’t find it, so I decided to create it, and in 2015 Poppy & Peonies was born.

We’ve come a long way in five years – from filling orders in my basement to appearing on Dragons’ Den, and now, expanding into new product categories and collaborating with some exciting influencers and brands. I’d be lying if I said it’s been nothing but smooth sailing, but thanks to our incredible community, we’ve never felt more loved and supported!

We believe in our responsibility to care for our environment and we are passionate about preserving the health and welfare of our planet, and the animals that live on it. All of our bags are made from high-quality vegan leather, and our entire product line is vegan, cruelty-free, and PETA-approved. We ship our products plastic-free and we use a combination of recycled, compostable, and biodegradable materials to mitigate shipping waste, and we are constantly looking for new ways to make our products and supply chain more sustainable to reduce our carbon footprint.

Champion accessibility and inclusive design across the entire digital experience

Translate business requirements into elegant, intuitive interactions that feel quintessentially Poppy & Peonies

Lead and mentor teams and external partners across ecommerce and web development

Collaborate closely with cross-functional peers in marketing, creative, finance, and operations, acting as the connective tissue between the site and the rest of the business

Represent the ecommerce function in leadership conversations, bringing a clear point of view on priorities, tradeoffs, and what the team needs to succeed

Foster a culture of curiosity and experimentation, making it safe to test, learn, and share results openly even when outcomes aren't what you hoped

Be a generous thought partner to colleagues across the business, helping others understand how the site works and why the customer experience matters

Proven experience leading ecommerce growth within a direct-to-consumer, retail, fashion, or lifestyle brand

Hands-on Shopify experience; you don't need to code, but you know your way around the platform

Proven track record of driving measurable conversion and revenue growth

Comfortable managing external developers or agencies with clear, concise briefs

Strong analytical skills; comfortable in GA4, Shopify Analytics, or similar

Experience with CRO tools

A strong visual eye; you can give design feedback and spot UX problems without a formal design background

A builder mentality; you're energized by a lean team and ownership, not slowed down by it
