Senior Merchandiser – Full Time – Manchester

Senior Merchandiser | Market Leading, Multi-Brand Retailer | Manchester
Location: Manchester
Salary: £50,000 – £60,000 + benefits

About the Role:

We’re partnering with a well-known, multi-brand retailer with genuine heritage to find an experienced Senior Merchandiser to join the team.

This business is on a real transformation journey – performance is strong and the momentum is only building, backed by excellent new leadership and a supportive, ambitious team. It’s a rare opportunity to join a well-established, much-loved brand at exactly the right moment: established enough to offer real stability and resource, but changing fast enough that a Senior Merchandiser joining now will have genuine ownership and the chance to shape what comes next.
This is a fast-paced, hands-on environment. We’re looking for someone who wants to come in, get stuck in, and make a visible impact – not just maintain the status quo.

The Role:

• Owning the sales, stock and intake strategy for your categories, ensuring plans are commercially robust and aligned to business targets
• Leading weekly and seasonal trade analysis, identifying risk and opportunity, and driving decisive action
• Partnering closely with Buying to shape range architecture, OTB and future range planning
• Managing markdown, promotional and clearance strategy to protect margin while maximising sell-through
• Coaching and developing an Assistant Merchandiser/Merchandiser within your team
• Building strong cross-functional relationships across Buying, Planning, Supply Chain and Retail
• Presenting clear, confident trade updates and recommendations to senior stakeholders
• Playing an active role in wider transformation initiatives, bringing fresh thinking to established ways of working

About You:

• Proven experience as a Merchandiser or Senior Merchandiser from a fashion background.
• A commercially sharp, analytical thinker who can translate data into clear, confident trading decisions
• Comfortable operating at pace, with the resilience and adaptability to work through a period of change
• A natural leader – able to influence senior stakeholders and develop junior team members
• Excited by the opportunity to genuinely shape and improve processes, not just work within them
• Strong systems skills, with experience of merchandise planning tools

What’s On Offer:

• The chance to join a well-known, established retailer at a genuinely exciting point in its transformation
• Excellent new leadership and collaborative team culture
• Real ownership and the opportunity to make a visible, lasting impact
• Strong potential for growth and progression as the business evolves
