About ARNE
ARNE is a UK-based apparel and footwear brand based in Birchwood Park, near Warrington. We design and develop all our products in the UK, working with trusted manufacturing partners across both the near and far east.
All our products are available directly to customers through ARNEclo.com, offering a seamless online shopping experience. We're also proud to be stocked in Selfridges, both in-store and online, and we've recently opened our first permanent retail store at Liverpool ONE - a huge milestone for the brand.
Looking ahead, we have ambitious goals for the next decade, and the team firmly believes they're all achievable. From launching new product categories and expanding internationally to investing in paid media, CRM, and growing our retail presence — the next chapter for ARNE is shaping up to be an exciting one. And this is only the beginning!
We've come a long way from starting out in Mum's bungalow back in 2018 to our all-new, fully bespoke HQ. This space will be our home for at least the next 5-10 years, and while it's not quite our style to shout too loudly, it's here that we plan to reach our goals, take ARNE global, and further establish ourselves as a truly iconic UK brand.
We are now looking for an Assistant Merchandiser to join ARNE, who will support the team in maximising sales through effective management of stock. We are looking for a driven, enthusiastic individual with an analytical background and a love for excel! If you are interested in joining us on our exciting journey, please apply today.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
