ABOUT THE ROLE
Are you an experienced Import Merchandiser looking for your next challenge? Do you want to work with fun, creative products in a fast-paced, growing business? This could be the role for you.
We’re looking for an Import Merchandiser to join our team, working across a variety of toy categories. You’ll manage the product journey from concept through to delivery, ensuring everything arrives on time, at the right price, and to the highest quality.
Day-to-day, you’ll:
* Raise, track, and manage purchase orders.
* Own the Critical Path, making sure key milestones and delivery dates are met.
* Liaise daily with factories in the Far East to track samples, approvals, and testing.
* Ensure packaging, testing, and labelling meet customer requirements.
* Arrange bulk test reports with suppliers and vendors.
* Build strong relationships with major retailers and overseas factories.
* Support the team with essential admin to keep projects running smoothly.
ABOUT THE CANDIDATE
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
* Experience in merchandising (import or wholesale background ideal).
* A strong understanding of managing the Critical Path.
* Excellent organisational and communication skills.
* Confidence working with Far East factories.
* A hands-on, proactive approach — willing to “roll up your sleeves” in a small but busy team.
* Good IT skills (Microsoft Office essential).
ABOUT THE CLIENT
West Yorkshire-based retail supplier that designs, sources, and supplies to leading retailers in the UK. The role will be office-based x2 days, so you must be able to commute to the office to be considered.
