You'll join a collaborative and ambitious team where you'll have the autonomy to make decisions, influence strategy and help drive the next phase of growth. Working closely with senior stakeholders across the business, you'll also lead and develop a Merchandise Assistant within a growing merchandising function.

. Creating and delivering category, assortment and stock plans 
. Managing sales, stock and intake forecasts to maximise performance 
. Analysing trading performance and identifying opportunities for growth 
. Driving performance of key product ranges and best-selling lines to maximise sales and profitability 
. Managing promotional activity and markdown strategies 
. Maintaining optimal stock availability across key product ranges 
. Working closely with suppliers to ensure timely deliveries and stock intake 
. Overseeing purchase order management and inventory planning 
. Collaborating with Product, Design, Finance, Digital and Operations teams 
. Leading and developing a Merchandise Assistant 
. Producing meaningful analysis to support strategic business decisions

. Generous staff discount on products 
. Pension scheme 
. Paid volunteering day each year for a charity of your choice

Why This Role? 
This isn't a role where you'll simply report on the numbers. You'll be trusted to influence decisions, challenge thinking, drive performance and help shape the future direction of the product offering.

This role is ideally suited to someone who enjoys being part of a collaborative office environment and is happy to be based in the Gloucester office for the majority of the week, with the flexibility to work from home one day per week. 
If you're looking for a position where your expertise will be recognised, your input genuinely valued, and your career can continue to develop within a successful premium retail business, we'd love to hear from you.
