Product & Merchandising Executive

As a Product Merchandising Executive

You’re curious about what makes a great product and why customers choose to buy it. You have a strong eye for design, but you’re equally comfortable looking at sales numbers, margins and stock levels. You’re organised, commercially minded and enjoy bringing products from an initial idea through development, launch and ongoing improvement.
