Merchandiser PLT - Manchester, United Kingdom - PrettyLittleThing
Description
As a Merchandiser you will be working closely with our Merchandise Managers and Head of Merchandising to support the growth of one of our most profitable and high-profile departments here at Pretty Little Thing. We are looking for a candidate already operating at Merchandiser level within a similar fast paced retail business.
When you're not busy planning and managing stock levels, you'll also be looking after intake and focusing on sales performance. You'll be part of the go-to team for many other business areas, because we're online-only you'll be able to act fast and see the impact of your decisions in hours across a global platform.
YOUR TEAM
In Merchandising, we live and breathe data, trends and fashion. Our vision is clear: we want to be the global market leader, always first to market. We push boundaries and never get stuck in old habits. Without us, the Group wouldn't be able to keep up with stock levels and demand. Our customers want their wardrobe to be on-trend, and they want it now, so we work with Buying to analyse performance, predict what customers want and what will sell and then make it happen.
At PrettyLittleThing, we've got massive ambition. To reach and then surpass our goals. This is why we're on the lookout for like-minded people who are passionate about making big things happen. If you're analytical and driven, PrettyLittleThing is the perfect environment for you.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
WORKING WITH US
To succeed here, you have to love working at pace. It's relentless, but we love it. Change is a certainty – you need to adapt and be agile. We want you to challenge the status quo, innovate and be open to trying new things. We're always pushing boundaries. We empower our people, giving them freedom and autonomy to learn and grow in their roles.
MORE ABOUT YOU
