• Anticipate challenges, close gaps, and bring fresh ideas to how products are developed, sourced, and delivered.
• Manage and develop supplier relationships, ensuring transparency, trust, and innovation at every stage.
• Apply ethical and compliance checks to ensure suppliers meet the brand's standards.
• Work closely with buying, tech and merchandising teams to validate suppliers, secure competitive pricing, and ensure business cases are sound.
• Lead projects to implement new processes or solutions, coordinating multiple teams to bring initiatives to life.
• Guide new suppliers through first orders and ongoing collaboration, troubleshooting and resolving challenges to maintain smooth delivery.
• Stay ahead of evolving legislation.
• Partner with teams to maintain high standards for ethical sourcing, stock quality, and environmental responsibility.
• Act as a key point of contact for supplier performance, ensuring alignment with the brand's vision and commercial goals.

• Proven experience as a buyer, merchandiser, or commercial product manager.
• Strong commercial acumen and confidence in driving range decisions, supplier negotiations, and cost structures.
• Interest in ethical sourcing, sustainability, and ESG compliance, with the ability to implement best practice across partners.
• Excellent stakeholder management and collaboration skills.
• Analytical, strategic, and proactive mindset with a keen eye for detail.
• Passion for delivering beautiful, commercially viable product ranges that delight customers and align with brand values.
