Reports to: Senior Director of Ecommerce
Location: Remote - US

About the Role

As our Director, Ecommerce and Marketing Analytics, you will serve as the analytical hub of Sur La Table — building the frameworks, standards, and workflows that transform data into decisions across eCommerce, Marketing, Finance, Retail, Merchandising, Inventory Planning, and Operations. This role exists because Sur La Table needs a single, trusted analytical voice that can move the organization beyond reactive reporting and toward proactive, AI-enabled insight leadership. You will own the integrity of core datasets, define company-wide KPI frameworks, and establish how AI is responsibly integrated into planning and performance workflows.
 
At six months, success looks like a unified metrics framework adopted across functions, repeatable AI-assisted insight workflows embedded into executive reviews, and measurable improvement in the quality and speed of data-backed decisions across the business. At twelve months, you will have built a scalable analytics function with clear standards, a pipeline of junior talent, and a reputation as the company's most trusted source of commercial truth.
 
This is a lean team. You will own a lot, move fast, and make decisions with full end-to-end responsibility.

  • Advanced SQL and strong analytical modeling capabilities.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and governing AI-enabled analytics workflows, including validation frameworks that pressure-test AI outputs against source data and commercial logic.
