Company Description

About Stellies:
Stellies is the adventure of unrestrained life.
The moments happen when you are free of inhibition, fear and restraint. It’s real, authentic and sometimes stout.
Associating with Stellies calls out the risk taker, the challenger in you, that willingness to dance like nobody's watching, speak without worry and reach without fear of falling.
It’s doing what you would have done if there was no consequence.
It’s brave, true, and worthy of remembrance.
Stellies sells apparel and accessories, but will soon expand into other consumer goods that fit the brand’s lifestyle.
We're looking for an E-commerce Specialist with a proven track record in revenue generation to join our team on a 6-month contract basis, with the potential for a permanent position based on achieving clear targets and goals.
