CRO Manager in Bristol

Vivobarefoot exists to reconnect people with natural movement. Not as a wellness trend, but as a genuine fix for what modern life is doing to human bodies and the planet they live on. Great products only change the world if people can find them, understand them, and buy them. We're looking for a CRO Manager who can ensure our digital experience is as purposeful as what's in the box, turning curiosity into conversion, and making sure the business that supports the mission is as strong as the belief behind it. It’s an opportunity to make a meaningful impact and shape how we show up for our consumers.

WHERE YOU'LL PLAY

Our CRO Manager owns the experimentation programme that closes the gap between a visitor and purchase. You will take a testing programme that already exists and grow it, mature it, and eventually build it out so the team can run experiments, not just you. You'll also play a central role in our migration from Magento to Shopify, ensuring conversion performance doesn't take a hit in the transition.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

• Design and run A/B tests and multivariate experiments across the site - landing pages, PDPs, basket, checkout, and paid journeys.
• Develop test hypotheses from both quantitative data and qualitative sources.
• Own the experimentation roadmap - prioritised by impact, not instinct.
• Identify friction and drop-off points across the purchase funnel and translate them into structured test programmes.
• Present test results to stakeholders with statistical rigour - confidence intervals, not just 'it won'.
• Progressively hand testing capability to wider teams, building process and templates that make experimentation accessible without sacrificing quality.
• Write clear product requirements and feature descriptions, working with product and development teams to get winning tests implemented on our site.
• Work with our design team, overseeing the end-to-end design process from test concept and wireframe through to engineering handoff.

ALL ABOUT YOU

• You know your tools. You're rigorous with data. And you can tell a story from the numbers that actually moves people to act.
• Experience within CRO or digital optimisation, ideally in ecommerce.
• Experience leading an experimentation roadmap, not just running tests.
• Hands-on with VWO or similar.
• Comfortable operating in Magento and Shopify would be ideal.
• Proficient in Google Analytics, Contentsquare or comparable.
• Enough HTML/CSS to write a tight developer brief and QA it properly.
• Strong project management and cross-functional communication.
• Curious about AI and how it can improve what you do.
• SQL knowledge is a bonus.
