Buyer and Product Development Manager - Swindon, United Kingdom - Neptune (Europe) Ltd
Description
At Neptune, our passion for great design and an appreciation of our customers are at the heart of everything we do. Our highly visionary Product Development team help define, drive and perfect new and existing products, which range from beautiful furniture right through to our stunning selection of home accessories.
Based at our stunning Support Office in Swindon, Wiltshire, with hybrid working, we are looking for an energised, style-engaged and process-driven Buyer and Product Development Manager to join our family. In this fast paced and exciting role you will manage specific categories through the critical path from brief to launch, ensuring deadlines are met and communicated throughout the business and with external stakeholders.
Working closely with the Lead Buyer on concepting and developing new ranges and product categories, you'll bring your skill and experience within homewares buying to manage product improvements in terms of margin, quality and supplier performance. You'll influence the department strategy in areas of margin, pricing and range building through careful analysis of sales, competition, and strategic sourcing/resourcing, monitoring trade and making recommendations to optimise sales and stock.
You will present to our Head of Buying regularly, and there will be opportunities to travel for manufacturing and inspiration.
Supporting the development of the vision of Neptune, in this role you will focus on:
Bringing an exceptional eye for detail and a strong visual perception, you'll be extremely organised and methodical in your approach, able to build excellent relationships and have excellent communication, influencing and negotiation skills. This isn't just a career, it's a calling - as you'll be at the heart of bringing an exciting idea to life. You'll bring solid experience of homewares buying, working with off-shore manufacturing and both 'from-design' and 'off-shelf' product.
What Benefits we can offer you
Across all locations, we stay united by our company values: Do The Right Thing, Do It Together, Aim High and Keep It Real.
We're an equal opportunities employer; our mission is to welcome everyone and create inclusive teams, with all colleagues and applicants afforded the same opportunities. We encourage everyone to join us and be themselves at work, in an environment that actively promotes equality, diversity and inclusion and where everyone's voices are heard.
