Berkshire | Up to £65,000 DOE
We're recruiting on behalf of a design-led furniture brand who need an experienced Buying Manager to take ownership of their product range and turn strong ideas into strong sales.
It's a role that sits right at the intersection of creative and commercial - one week you'll be scouting the next design trend or sourcing a new supplier, the next you'll be knee-deep in the numbers making sure every line in the range hits its target. You'll lead the product strategy from first concept through to launch, working closely with Merchandising, Supply Chain and your own Buying team.
Why you’ll love this job
This newly created role comes with real scope to shape how it develops - and the chance to leave your mark on a successful brand's product story. If you'd relish combining creative input with genuine commercial ownership, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll be doing
Leading the product range from first concept through supplier selection to launch, with full ownership of the critical path
Spotting design trends early and turning them into exclusive, commercially-led collections
Planning the range at SKU level in partnership with Merchandising, working to an agreed budget
Growing category margin and profitability by working closely with designers and suppliers
Reviewing supplier performance - cost, quality, delivery and responsible sourcing - and holding standards high
Leading technical and quality sign-off to make sure every product meets UK safety and compliance requirements
Balancing availability, lead times and stock efficiency alongside Merchandising and Supply Chain
Analysing sales data to find opportunities, strengths and gaps across the range
Travelling to trade shows, suppliers and factories across the UK, Europe and the Far East
Developing and mentoring your team
What you'll bring
Senior-level buying experience gained within a retailer, B2B business, or similar commercial environment within the furniture category
A background spanning both hardline and upholstered furniture, with a track record of combining creative flair and commercial results
Confident negotiation skills and an instinct for what's coming next in design
