Fractional Shopify Agency Recruitment

Shopify businesses often reach a point where agencies are too detached and full-time hires are unnecessary or premature. What is missing is consistent, accountable expertise that understands the platform, the trading model and the realities of day-to-day ecommerce operations.

Cogent2’s Fractional Shopify Managed Service provides access to senior Shopify specialists on a part time, ongoing basis. These are not external advisors or short-term contractors. They operate as an extension of your internal team, taking ownership of Shopify delivery, optimisation and ongoing improvement.

Our fractional Shopify team members cover platform management, development oversight, performance optimisation and technical coordination across apps, integrations and third-party partners. Because the service is managed, responsibility does not sit with an individual alone. It is backed by Cogent2’s wider technical and ecommerce capability, ensuring continuity, quality and delivery confidence.

This model works particularly well for retailers that want consistent Shopify expertise without agency dependency, or for teams that need reliable hands-on support without building a full in-house function. It also suits businesses that are scaling, trading heavily or preparing for platform change and need steady leadership rather than reactive support.

The outcome is a Shopify environment that is actively managed, continuously improved and properly owned. You get the right people, the right level of involvement and the reassurance that Shopify delivery is under control, without the cost or complexity of traditional agency or permanent hires.
