Product Assistant
£25,000
Fleetwood (moving to Kirkham in June)
Full Time
Love toys, creativity and seeing products come to life?
If you enjoy working with products, ideas and brands – and like the thought of helping turn a concept into something that ends up on shelves – this could be the role for you.
You’ll join a busy and creative product development team where no two days are the same. One day you might be reviewing competitor products, the next supporting the launch of a brand-new toy range or preparing samples for a trade show.
If you’re organised, curious and enjoy working in a fast-moving environment, this is an opportunity to develop real experience in product development within the toy industry.
What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)
Your work will include:
1. Supporting the development of new toy products from concept through to launch
2. Researching competitor products and helping the team understand market trends
3. Assisting with product specifications, packaging and approvals
4. Working with licensors to gain approvals for licensed products
5. Helping prepare product presentations for sales teams
6. Supporting the preparation of samples for trade shows and displays
7. Maintaining product records and documentation within internal systems
8. Assisting with product catalogues and product information
9. Working with marketing and design teams to ensure products are represented accurately across campaigns and materials
10. Helping coordinate product samples, photography and demonstrations
You’ll also support the team with showroom preparation, events and product launches – giving you exposure to many different aspects of the product development process.
Is this you?
You’ll likely enjoy this role if you:
11. Are highly organised and comfortable managing multiple tasks
12. Have strong attention to detail
13. Enjoy working in a creative and fast-paced environment
14. Are confident communicating with colleagues across different teams
15. Take initiative and enjoy solving problems
What you’ll get
16. Salary £25,000
17. A varied role within the product development team
18. Exposure to the full product lifecycle
19. A collaborative environment where you can develop your skills and experience
The role is currently based in Fleetwood, with the business planning to move to Kirkham around June, offering a modern working environment and continued growth for the team.
