Buying & Product Development

Support the product journey from design brief to launch, collaborating with Design, Marketing and wider teams.
Negotiate with suppliers to achieve the best cost prices and hit margin targets.
Spot trends and translate them into commercial, customer-focused product.
Keep data and systems up to date, including Assortment Planning tools.
Choose the right sourcing routes and suppliers for each product.
Monitor the critical path to ensure intake and distribution targets are met.
Attend fit sessions in the Buyer’s absence and provide styling and product feedback.

Suppliers & Relationships

Build strong supplier relationships, managing KPIs and ensuring sampling requirements are met.
Negotiate and liaise effectively with suppliers to deliver quality product on time.

Trading & Analysis

Monitor trade reports and take action where needed to maximise sales.
Adapt plans quickly to respond to market changes and challenges.
Share insights on products, suppliers, and best/worst sellers to inform decisions.
Keep an eye on competitors through ongoing analysis and action where appropriate.

Team & Collaboration

Support the development of colleagues, providing training and guidance where needed.
Work collaboratively with Merchandising, Design and Technical teams.
Be a positive role model, inspiring peers through enthusiasm and expertise.

Who you are:

Strong understanding of clothing/fashion product, trends, and customer preferences
Commercially aware, with numeracy and ability to analyse sales, stock and product performance
Experience supporting the end-to-end buying process and product development
Lingerie experience essential
Confident negotiating with suppliers and understanding sourcing options
Excellent communication and collaboration skills across teams and suppliers
Organised, able to manage multiple product areas, deadlines, and critical paths
Able to support, train and mentor junior team members
