Since 1979, we’ve grown from a small shop to a nationwide retailer with a major distribution centre, thriving e-commerce platform, and expanding retail stores.
We’re known for our exceptional stock availability, competitive pricing and most importantly, our deep expertise in power tools.
Now we’re looking for a Power Tool Brand Controller & Buyer to take ownership of key brands and product ranges. This role is ideal for someone who genuinely understands power tools: how they’re used, how they differ, and what matters to trades who rely on them daily.
About the Power Tool Brand Controller role:
This isn’t a generic buying job. It’s a specialist commercial role centred on power tool performance, brand positioning and customer value.

* Manage and grow major power tool brands within our portfolio
* Build ranges that truly serve tradespeople and serious DIY customers
* Make fast commercial decisions in a dynamic, competitive market
* Influence brand strategy across our website, retail stores and national customer base
Your understanding of tools will directly shape customer buying decisions and help keep ITS ahead of the competition.
As our Power Tool Brand Controller, your responsibilities will include:
* Own the commercial performance of your assigned power tool brands
* Develop competitive pricing strategies based on market knowledge and brand positioning
* Negotiate costs and commercial terms with key suppliers and manufacturers
* Manage stock availability, demand planning and forecasting
* Deliver against KPIs including sales, margin, stock turn and stock holding
* Plan and manage promotions across online and in-store channels
* Ensure all product data, specs and classifications are accurate and up to date
* Identify opportunities for bundles, kits, platform add-ons, battery deals and upsells
* Work with retail stores to ensure ranges, offers and displays support the customer journey
To be successful as our Power Tool Brand Controller, it is essential to have:
* Strong negotiation and supplier-influencing skills
* Excellent Excel skills (including pivot tables and data analysis)
* A commercial mindset with the ability to interpret data and act decisively
* Confidence working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
* High proficiency in Microsoft Office and internal systems
It would be great if you had:
* Experience in buying, category management, sales or a commercial role
