The role You'll be joining a small, close-knit team and working side by side with the Senior Buyer as the commercial lead for your product department. You'll own the numbers: you'll trade the current season through OTB, set up future seasons for success, and turn data into clear recommendations that shape range, price and stock decisions across the UK and international markets.

It's hands-on and highly visible. You'll get real influence in a business where your work makes a difference straight away.

* Trading the department week in, week out, and managing OTB, WSSI and stock health to protect sales and margin

* Owning sales and volume forecasts from line level up to category, in line with seasonal profiles and campaign activity

* Working in partnership with Buying and Design on range width, depth and content, and on the range's progression across the UK and international markets

* Building markdown and clearance plans with Buying, and getting ahead of terminal stock

* Making sure new lines and promotions land right first time across every function

* Producing sharp, accurate analysis for senior management, E-commerce and the wider business

* Challenging how things are done and improving processes as the business scales

What you'll bring

* A proven track record at Merchandiser or Senior Merchandiser level in retail. A clothing, footwear or apparel background is ideal.

* Experience of both B2C (DTC, e-commerce or retail) and B2B (wholesale or retail partners) merchandising

* Strong command of WSSI, OTB, forecasting and range planning

* Advanced Excel skills and high numeracy. You read data commercially, not just accurately.

* Confidence as a communicator who influences with facts and builds strong relationships with Buyers and stakeholders
