Analyse performance trends and identify opportunities to optimise range, pricing and stock
Collaborate closely with Buying, Ecommerce, Marketing and Retail teams
Coach and develop a small but high-performing team
What We're Looking For:

Strong commercial acumen and a passion for product
Able to balance strategic planning with hands-on trading
A collaborative and inspiring team player
Experience working in a fast-paced SME or heritage-led brand is desirable
Why Join?
Join a growing, financially strong business with huge potential
Be part of a tight-knit, passionate team that values integrity, creativity and quality
Play a key leadership role in shaping the future of a much-loved brand
Hybrid working with South West HQ presence required
If you're a commercially minded merchandising leader ready to take the next step in your career - we'd love to hear from you.
