eCommerce Digital Marketing Specialist - Merrell

Wolverine Worldwide, Rockford, MI, United States


Marketing Role at Merrell

Merrell exists to share the simple power of being outside with everyone. We believe the "outdoors" is a much broader space than just the mountain summit; it's any space beyond your front door. Our mission is to help our community rethink the outdoors by building gear that works everywhere, from technical alpine ridges to urban city streets. We don't just follow the trail; we help define where it goes next. We are a team that lives at the intersection of elite performance and modern style. Our history on the trail and commitment to innovation has made us the most awarded brand in the outdoor space. Recently, our MTL SpeedARC Peak won the prestigious ISPO Award for its breakthrough trail-racing tech, while the SpeedARC Surge BOA was named one of TIME's Best Inventions for its modern, futuristic design and energy return. Whether it's the Moab 3 being named "Best Hiking Shoe" by CNN Underscored and Popular Mechanics, or the Jungle Moc being recognized by HuffPicks as the gold standard for comfort, we are consistently recognized for building the most reliable, and most innovative, gear in the world. This is a rare opportunity to join a global brand at an inflection point – where performance, brand storytelling, data-driven decision making, and cultural relevance converge. For digital marketers energized by growth, innovation, and the power of connection, Merrell offers the chance to orchestrate meaningful reach and build something enduring on a global stage.
