Experience

Director of Digital Growth, Spacetalk Ltd (ASX:SPA)

November 2025 ─ Present

As Director of Digital Growth, I accelerated digital performance by increasing organic traffic by 20%+ and reducing website operating costs by over $100,000 annually without sacrificing capability. Within my first three months, I led a full Shopify 2.0 redesign that improved site speed, UX and conversion performance across 14 localised markets.

I optimised Klaviyo lifecycle, abandonment and failed payment flows, reducing subscription churn by 18% and driving incremental retention revenue through improved automation and segmentation. Through new welcome offer testing and personalised onboarding journeys, I increased onsite conversion by 14% while reducing NCAC by 21%.

To improve acquisition efficiency, I launched a new MoF UGC strategy across Meta and TikTok, delivering a 32% increase in ROAS and a 27% reduction in CPA across paid social campaigns.

Head of Online, Marquee Retail Group (CBCH | The Daily Edited)

February 2023 ─ October 2025

As Head of Online, I led the digital growth strategy across Colette by Colette Hayman and The Daily Edited, driving improvements across conversion, retention and operational efficiency. I launched Click & Collect functionality, which scaled to over 30% of total online orders and contributed to a 15% uplift in store-assisted online revenue.

I also led the rebrand and relaunch of the CBCH Loyalty Program, increasing repeat purchase rate by 22% and improving customer engagement across owned channels. To improve operational performance, I streamlined the Shopify-to-WMS integration, reducing manual processing by 40% and improving fulfilment speed and accuracy across the business.

To further scale performance, I implemented CRO and experimentation frameworks across both brands, delivering a 12% uplift in conversion rate and measurable improvements in UX performance and overall online revenue.

Head of eCommerce, colette by colette hayman

January 2020 ─ February 2023

As Head of eCommerce, I led the business through a period of significant growth and commercial transformation, delivering record-breaking weekly and monthly revenue alongside sustained improvements in customer value and retention. We increased customer lifetime value (LTV) by 18% through improved segmentation, lifecycle marketing and tighter integration of customer data across channels.

I led a full migration of EDM and marketing automation platforms, improving deliverability, personalisation and campaign performance across email and SMS. In parallel, I integrated offline customer and sales data into our CRM, enabling more precise targeting, improved attribution and stronger marketing efficiency.

Throughout this period, I managed a remote cross-functional team through the COVID disruption while maintaining consistent growth, operational stability and strong commercial performance across all digital channels.

eCommerce Manager, colette by colette hayman

October 2017 – January 2020

During my 2 years as eCommerce Manager at CBCH, I doubled both revenue and conversion rate through continuous CRO, site optimisation and structured testing across key customer journeys. These improvements were driven by ongoing UX enhancements, merchandising strategy and performance-led experimentation across product and landing pages.

I reduced operational workload by ~40% by streamlining core trading workflows, including product and image uploads, pricing and promotional execution, product tagging and onsite content management. This enabled faster campaign deployment, improved trading agility and reduced reliance on manual processes across the team.

In parallel, I implemented a more structured optimisation cadence across both CBCH and The Daily Edited, introducing testing frameworks and prioritisation processes that improved speed-to-market and delivered a sustained uplift in overall onsite efficiency and revenue performance
