Junior Buyer & Merchandiser

Good Tuesday is a design-led stationery brand and a certified B Corp. We create beautiful tools to help people plan their time with purpose. We believe good planning creates space for what really matters. We have all the makings of an iconic brand — impactful products, a loyal community, and a strong sense of purpose. We’re growing fast, and we’re looking for curious, kind, and capable people who want to help grow a company that uses business as a force for good — and have fun doing it.

As Junior Buyer & Merchandiser, you’ll be responsible for making sure we have the right stock, in the right place, at the right time — and at the right margin. You’ll analyse sales and stock data by channel (ecommerce, wholesale, marketplaces), forecast demand, raise purchase orders, and maintain supplier relationships. You’ll also support our commercial performance by working within budgets, planning around cashflow, and contributing to gross margin and P&L targets. This is a commercially-focused role, ideal for someone who’s comfortable in spreadsheets, methodical in planning, and confident bringing insights to the table.

• Are aligned with our values – you are kind, honest, humble, curious, and care about people and planet

We use business as a force for good — Our values guide how we work, how we make decisions, and how we treat each other.

• Customer First - We exist for our customers. We listen deeply, design meaningfully, and act fast to serve their needs. Every decision starts here.
• Caring - We lead with empathy. Whether it’s our team, customers, or partners — we treat people with kindness, assume good intentions, and build trust through respect.
• Raise the Bar - We’re not here to be average. We go for better — in quality, creativity, and how we show up every day.
• Honest & Accountable - We speak clearly and take responsibility. We do what we say, take feedback well, and build trust in small moments — and big ones.
• Purposeful - We act with intention. No busy work, no filler. We focus on what moves the needle and build systems that last.
