I manage the site overall myself including editing, adding products or photos or changing prices with assistance from my account manager.
The other two work in sales and collect up the orders for dispatch.

Our president and owner (who does almost everything), and a marketing consultant. He did the preliminary set-up and design. I manage it on a daily basis and make changes when appropriate. I also make decisions regarding app partners such as mail marketers, tax consultants, money takers!

BigCommerce is an excellent platform with a few quirks

We have Customer Service agents that help answer questions about customer orders like lead times, tracking info, items ordered and product recommendations. We have sales reps using bigcommerce to place orders on behalf of customers, create customer groups with special pricing, and discounted shipping rates. We have catalog specialists that add products and categories. We have content writers adding content to the blog, product descriptions, and category pages. We have developers making changes to the theme and email templates.

All of them. I do everything for the site and the business. A solo operation currently. The BigCommerce platform allows me to expand how I operate on several fronts at the same time. I am looking forward to teaching team members all of the abilities of the website as our business expands.
