Every exceptional customer moment starts with our people
At TFG London, we believe that it’s our team who bring our house of brands to life. All our colleagues across Hobbs, Phase Eight, Whistles, and Inside Story play a vital role in our success story and that story is only getting more exciting!
We're looking for a Junior Buyer to join us on our Outerwear department. Our buyers are at the core of our business, developing and delivering commercial and profitable ranges that offer our Hobbs customer a point of difference.
What you'll do:
- Alongside our Senior Buyer, plan for our Ready To Wear department, preparing lessons learnt and strategy together with the Merchandiser to propose options and recognise spend and building blocks
- Meet the margin target for the total season, influencing our brand product strategy in partnership with the broader Buying team, reporting back to the Head of Buying
- Partner with our Design and Merchandising teams to develop and build a commercial range, being clear on competitor activity and on the opportunities within the department to ensure we are without gaps or duplication
- Anticipate new trends and product opportunities whilst meeting the needs of our customer
- Develop strong working relationships with our supplier base, both long and short lead time, ensuring that product requirements, quality and compliance are met to ensure we are not exposed
Who you'll be:
Working closely with the design team to develop new product ranges seasonally, our buyers ensure our ranges are delivered on time achieving company KPI’s (in-take, margin and markdown) and partner closely with the merchandising team to drive profits. Alongside the Senior Buyer, our Junior Buyer will anticipate and meet the needs of our global customer on the department, delivering a well-balanced range in line with our product and overall brand strategy.
