Looking to transition from ER to Ecommerce

Hey guys, I have worked in equity research for a few years after undergrad but have realized that I do not love finance like I once thought. I am really interested in joining a growing ecommerce company in NYC etc but an somewhat clueless on how to approach this situation. I am aiming for business development positions and feel that I have solid experience although I have never worked in a relatable sector (I was on a financials team in ER).

Anyone have advice on the most efficient way to conduct my job search apart form applying on companies' websites? --- i.e. certain job boards, recruiting firms, linkedin, etc. I only focused on finance as a career up to this point so I am relatively ignorant to the hiring processes in other industries.

Thanks
