The heart of the role.
You’ll become an Assistant Buyer in one of the most exciting and fast-moving buying departments in the world. Working throughout the buying cycle across all channels, you’ll support your Buyer by monitoring sales performance, contributing to the development of the seasonal buying strategy, assisting with product selection and quantifying orders. You will be involved in proposing and executing trading actions in order to improve sales performance and reduce risk to the business.
About us.
A world-class buying function, we work with countless leading luxury brands and have a far-reaching influence on consumer tastes. Cross-functional collaboration, hard work and innovation shape our team approach. Evolution is constant, as it’s the key to remaining at the forefront of luxury retail and it’s supported by our business-wide transformation programme.
About you.
Analytical, numerate and passionate about the lingerie and swimwear sector, you have already proved yourself as an Assistant Buyer. You understand ecommerce and omnichannel retail. Now you’re ready to take on more influence by working alongside our Buyer, building strong vendor relationships and taking full ownership of specific brands. You will be a natural relationship builder and work closely with Marketing, Retail and the Online Trading teams.
Our promise to you.
Nothing is impossible where our customers are concerned. We pride ourselves on thinking of imaginative, new ways to delight them. This passion to always push for more is what sets you apart, too. You’ll help us find new ways to keep improving.
As well as strong long-term career potential and development support, you can look forward to a Harrods’ discount of 33%, 25 days’ annual leave, and your birthday off. You’ll also benefit from a season ticket loan and one day a year for charitable activity.
