• Overseeing departmental admin responsibilities, supporting your Merchandiser, and aiding another MAA.
• Accurately maintaining documents with the most up-to-date information.
• Managing Purchase Orders to ensure they are current and precise, including handling cancellations, PO adjustments, barcodes/SKUs, and price adjustments.
• Supporting the management of shipments to our warehouse in the UK and international partners. Reviewing shortages/overages and liaising with our 3PL regarding deliveries.
• Collaborating with multiple departments across the business, including Wholesale, Garment Tech, and Ecommerce.
• Maintaining strong supplier relationships with open communication.
• Providing timely sales analysis and performance reports for weekly trade meetings.
• Aiding in the implementation of our new PLM system.

• Ordering stock weekly for our stores and completing size ratios to optimise sales.
• Supporting the team in achieving departmental KPIs to maximise sales and profit.

About you:

• Previous experience in fashion merchandising, preferably within Womenswear.

• Excellent communication skills to work seamlessly across functions.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy in managing sales orders, adjustments, and invoicing.
• Ability to troubleshoot and resolve issues related to critical paths, discrepancies, and shipping routes.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience working cross-functionally with departments like finance, warehouse, and 3PL providers.
