Job Vacancy Details
Merchandise Planner
Sydney, Australia
Permanent
Updated September 1, 2008
This is a pure PLANNING role. You will be responsible for all sales, profit, stock turn over, aged stock and will work closely with the buying team. You will be analytical and able to work on your own initiative. This is a highly analytical role that means that you will have a proven track record in Merchandising Planning. This is not a role where you leave all the decisions to the buyers - YOU are the decision maker.
I am therefore seeking an experienced and ambitious Merchandise Planner to join the Buying and Merchandise Team based in the CBD.
Experience in Merchandise Planning is key and while knowledge of Accessories and/or Fashion categories would be an advantage, it is not essential.
Who we're looking for
You will currently be a Planner. This is a pre-requisite for this vacancy. You will be interviewed based on your planning experience and achievements. You will be used to high level financial and detailed analysis. Your decisions will have a direct impact on the business - and you will be judged on your return on investment.
The successful candidate will have excellent planning, analysis and inventory management skills, be well organized, and have a strong customer focus. This should ideally be coupled with a proven competency in merchandise systems and their exploitation. The above will need to have been gained in a multi store business.
About our client
My client is arguably one of the best retailers in Australia. With an amazing portfolio of stores across the country - this iconic retailer is looking to recruit the best.
What's on offer
Fantastic salary and top class working culture. This is a company that develops from within and the right candidate will have every opportunity for an amazing career.
