• Cross-Functional Influence:
  Collaborate daily with Trade Admin, Marketing, and Space Planning, positioning yourself as a key player in cross‑departmental projects.

• Solid Foundation: 12-18 months of hands‑on experience within a retail head office buying team.

  Comfortable with pricing data, high‑level Excel, and internal retail systems, with a natural eye for detail.

  Confident and clear when dealing with external suppliers and internal cross‑functional teams.
• Ambition: A proactive mindset and a real eagerness to sharpen your range strategy and negotiation skills over time.

Located in our vibrant Wimbledon office, you’ll join a supportive team within the Retail Buying team.
