E-commerce is the sale of products and services through digital channels, from initial customer contact to order fulfilment. An e-commerce specialist is responsible for developing and implementing business strategies, optimising sales processes, and managing customer interactions through web design and customer service.

To get ahead in e-commerce, you need to write a CV that highlights the right business and IT skills. Add some of the following hard skills to your e-commerce CV to show employers you have the technical ability to manage online sales:

 

  • E-commerce analytics tools (e.g., Hubspot, Looker, Kissmetrics)
  • Data analysis

  • Computer skills
  • SEO
  • Web design

  • Sales skills
  • Copywriting

Because e-commerce specialists have to work closely with buying, marketing, design, and web development teams, you’ll also need first-rate soft skills (personality traits that affect how you work with others). These should be woven into your professional summary and work experience bullet points.

You should include some of the following soft skills on your e-commerce CV:

 

  • Communication skills
