About The Job
We are looking for an experienced Merchandise Planner to join our team for a 12-month fixed-term contract.
As a Merchandiser, you will drive trading, planning, and stock management activities to drive sales, profit, and availability across specific Games Workshop products. You’ll achieve this through accurate forecasting, stock allocation, and optimizing availability, whilst ensuring adherence to the product delivery critical path.
Working as part of our wider Buying & Merchandising department and alongside other key business teams, you’ll use your commercial insight and forward-planning skills to build profitable ranges and identify opportunities. You’ll also drive trading and forecasting activities, ensuring accurate reporting, effective inventory management, and the delivery of key business KPIs. Working in a defined product area and being a supportive member of the team, you’ll generate and maintain sales forecasts, stock allocations, and demonstrate excellent control of inventory costs.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Demonstrating sound decision-making, you’ll balance objectivity with gut feel and intuition while working across a range of areas and maintaining strong working relationships with colleagues across the globe.
You’ll need to be committed to accuracy and be resilient in the face of changes. In return, we offer a great team environment, hybrid working, and a chance to be part of our fantastic business.
