Schuh is the leading fashion footwear player in the UK and has consistently delivered sales and profit growth in a challenging market. Our award-winning multi-channel offer is to the forefront of the market. Our Ecommerce business has doubled in the last two years, and following a successful 2011 (including the introduction of Check and Reserve, Live Chat and both an app and mobile site) we have exciting plans for the year ahead. Among other developments in 2012 we are targeting:
- Improved productivity, and increased use of, customer data

- Rollout of international websites
You will be:
- Dynamic, with strong views on the future of retailing
