Great communication and English skills are one of the most important things. I am a self taught programmer with 20 years experience but I have not worked directly as a programmer, only as an entrepreneur who works with programmers and codes for my own business needs.

Experience with marketplaces and e-commerce sales channels / tools is a plus.
