Product Listing & Social Media Marketing Specialist (Shopify + Canva)

Nerdzoic is a fast-growing U.S.-based collectible toy retailer operating both e-commerce and physical retail. We manage over 5,000 active SKUs, nearly 20,000 product variants, and add 5–50 new products daily. This is a high-volume, detail-intensive environment where organization, speed, and accuracy are critical.

We are hiring an experienced Shopify and Canva specialist to manage product listings, marketing graphics, social media posting, and basic email campaigns. This role will begin part-time at 20 hours per week, with a clear path to increased hours and eventual full-time growth based on performance and company expansion.

Compensation for this role is ?500–?550 per hour based on proven experience. A paid trial project (5–10 hours) is required before final hiring. A performance review will be conducted after 90 days with opportunity for increased hours and compensation based on results.

This is not an entry-level role. You must already be confident navigating the Shopify backend, managing variants and metafields, maintaining clean taxonomy, and working inside structured systems at scale. You should not require step-by-step hand-holding. You are expected to take brief prompts and independently gather the necessary details (from emails, vendor information, product pages, and research) to complete the work correctly.

A typical instruction might be: “New Marvel Legends wave tomorrow. Info coming via email. 7 SKUs.” From that brief prompt, you should be able to extract the product data, research missing information, create accurate Shopify listings, assign correct collections, tags, and product types, set metafields properly to maintain taxonomy, design promotional graphics in Canva, draft basic marketing copy, and schedule posts or campaigns accordingly.

Core responsibilities include creating and optimizing product listings, managing SKU and variant structures, maintaining consistent taxonomy (collections, tags, product types, and metafields), ensuring listings go live the same day they are assigned (unless a different date is specified), and protecting data accuracy across thousands of products. You will also design clean, on-brand promotional graphics in Canva, write captions, and schedule posts using Metricool while keeping visual output consistent across platforms. For email marketing, you will monitor our receiving log and inventory levels and launch template-based MailerLite campaigns when product arrives, using approved templates and writing clear, concise promotional copy that matches our brand voice.

Over time, this role is expected to grow into ownership of website content, digital merchandising, and marketing execution.

Strong English communication skills, proven Shopify backend experience, Canva design ability, independence, reliability, and comfort with fast-paced direct communication are non-negotiable. You must have at least one hour of overlap with U.S. Eastern morning time daily and be available for full U.S. hours approximately 5–10 times per year for major release/event days.
