About Blue Stout
Blue Stout is a fully remote digital agency helping 7–8 figure DTC brands grow through high-converting Shopify Plus experiences and performance email strategy. Since 2013, we've built and scaled stores for Shark Tank brands, Forbes 30 Under 30 founders, and $100M+ eCommerce companies.
We move fast, own outcomes, and don't hand-hold. High performance and radical ownership are non-negotiables here.
The Role
We're hiring a Shopify Plus Project Manager to lead end-to-end delivery of website builds, redesigns, and CRO projects for fast-growing eCommerce brands. You'll sit at the center of every project — managing clients, driving cross-functional teams, and keeping scope, timelines, and budgets locked in.
This is a client-facing, outcome-owning role — not a coordinator seat. You'll be expected to bring structure, judgment, and proactive communication from day one.
