Ready to take your buying career beyond the high street? At Harding+, your ranges could launch onboard ships sailing through the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Alaska or Northern Europe. Global Travel Retail is one of the most exciting and fast-moving spaces in retail. Trends shift by destination, customer profiles constantly evolve, and product needs to feel commercially right across multiple regions and experiences.
We're looking for a Buyer who wants to be part of that. Someone excited by product development, global sourcing and the opportunity to build commercially successful own brand ranges within a retail environment that's anything but ordinary.
- Developing commercially successful own brand and branded ranges across global markets
- Managing private label collections from concept through to launch and delivery
You'll already be operating at Junior Buyer or Buyer level within a retail environment and have experience developing own brand/private label product ranges end-to-end. A strong creative eye is essential, alongside solid commercial awareness and confidence building supplier relationships. Experience outside of purely clothing-led categories would work particularly well here… accessories, handbags, gifting, lifestyle or similar product areas are highly relevant.
Harding+ is the world's leading cruise retailer, operating across 80+ ships globally and creating retail experiences for millions of guests travelling worldwide. For Buyers, it's an opportunity to work in a uniquely exciting retail environment: combining global markets, fast-moving product development and the chance to see your ranges come to life onboard ships all over the world.
