As we expand our home and lifestyle ranges, our buyers and merchandisers have never been busier. Could you make their lives easier by providing a full admin service?

These are varied roles, which will involve everything from chasing suppliers for samples to data input, running reports and making sure systems are up to date. If you support one or more of our buyers, you’ll help to ensure products are selected on time and information is available so the correct buying decisions can be made. Assisting one or more of our merchandisers, you’ll be placing orders and making sure they come in on time.

Whichever role you take on, 100% accuracy will be expected, so you’ll need an eagle eye for detail. Both our buying and merchandising functions are central to the profitability of the business, so it’s important that you are commercially aware. You’ll also need the confidence to deal assertively with suppliers. We’re not specifically asking for admin experience – although we wouldn’t say no to it!

You’ll quickly get to grips with all the products in your category – and if you’re keen to get on, your role could provide a first-class training ground to pursue a future career in buying or merchandising.

Please note that this is a Head Office role, and not an In-Store role
