I'm on the market for a new job. Unfortunately, I'm not really too sure what my exact job title is. eCommerce experts will likely have the best insight on this. Job details can be found below.
Inventory Data Specialist is the job title my company has given me, but every search under that title yields slim results that aren't exactly identical to what I really do. Basically, I create product web pages for an outdoor gear company from start to finish. Here's a breakdown of exactly what I do:
I work with our company purchaser, whom provides me with a build list of new products we're bringing into our inventory. This is in an excel sheet format and has the absolute basics of the product - things such as MPNs, UPCs, product titles, and pricing info. From there, I do a lot of data entry via excel, and I mean a lot of data entry. My next step is to contact the manufacturer sales reps, obtain the company's product catalogs with detailed information on their entire line of products, and populate these spreadsheets with every single item specific I can possibly find. This includes things like dimensions, sizes, colors, product descriptions, their features, and so on. If I can't find factory descriptions, then I get creative and write them myself. Next, I find all of the correct categories to place these products in for search results on eBay, Bing, Amazon, Google, amongst others. After this is finished, I find factory images of these products and customize them in photoshop. Once this chunk of my job is complete, I then upload the files to ChannelAdvisor and NetSuite and do all of the data mapping required to get these listings created. After the listings are posted, I then manage the product pages for accuracy and do listing corrections and optimize listings for eBay, Big Commerce, and Amazon.
You'd think that positions like this are commonplace in today's world, and that I'd be able to find a position like this within any company that sells anything online. Job searching sure is tough when you don't even know what you're searching for. Any insight into what my job title is, or any suggestions for companies that might be able to utilize my talents would be fantastic. Thanks in advance MeFi. |
