What is a good progression of your employment position if your entry-level post undergrad job is e-commerce management? I personally feel like there is a ceiling in which I can progress as an e-commerce manager for my company and am unsure of how to further my career.

Maybe just gradually moving up the ladder in e-commerce departments? I think you’ll get good experience in the role you’ve accepted and there’s no way you will be completely trapped or limited after working there. People change careers and try new things all the time.

Have you thought of going into business development?

What about something that focuses on customer experience?

All good suggestions! Customer experience or customer success, business development or even account management perhaps

I think CS is a good fit but personally, I would also think about running your own e-commerce business at some point. If you move across different depts, you'll have a pretty deep understanding of what's needed and could probably run your own thing pretty well!
