Overview
We are hiring a Merchandise Assistant to join our successful Merchandise department. You will have an impact on the commercial opportunities across our stores, websites and growth of the business.
The role is varied and you will be involved in the running of weekly reports, analysis and communicating this back to your colleagues across the business. Merchandising is more than just reporting; it is the engine room of how our business works. There are trade meetings, store visits, development of product knowledge, adjusting prices and liaising with the wider stakeholder network. Ultimately you ensure we have the right product, in the right place, at the right price and at the right time.
The Team
The Merchandise team is one big family split into departments. You will get to know the wider team and across the departments. The departments are split to focus on areas such as Apparel, Footwear and Accessories. You will have the chance to work across branded suppliers and own brand supply chain. Within each department you will be hands on and see how your actions influence the sell through of products and ultimately get those sales.
About You
We love people with passion. It can be with fashion, it can be with something else but we want to help utilise that passion in to your career. You will be driven, ambitious and motivated and we will harness this in to your development. You will care about the stakeholders and customers and will be interested in the products we have. Organisational skills are a must and we always love to see people with a methodical approach to tasks. Ideally you will have a relevant degree (Mathematics, Business Studies, Economics, Buying & Merchandising) as well as being numerate, with analytical skills.
Diversity
We recognise and value the importance of diversity to help make sure we have lots of different perspectives when we are providing service to our colleagues and customers. We know that this will help us build a great service, which our customers will love. This is great news for our business. Diversity for us is also about building happy teams full of people that want to learn and want to be inspired by each other and our different experiences.
Recruitment Process
With the COVID-19 situation beginning to abate, our teams are all working in a hybrid mix of office and home working, adjusting to this new way of working as best we can. We will help make the interview process as clear and stress-free as possible, giving you the same opportunity as if we were meeting face to face.
We review applications on an individual basis, and if we feel you would be a good fit we will invite you for a call or Teams video for an informal chat about the role, and to see if we\'re a good fit for you.
We value open and honest conversations and collaboration, giving you a chance to learn about what we are doing in an informal and friendly environment. We want to know about you and why you feel that this is the opportunity for you.
