A brand that's rapidly disrupting the industry, capturing market share at pace, and building a reputation that competitors are taking very seriously and this where we're proud to represent scaling North West brands!

As the business continues its impressive growth journey, we're looking for a commercially minded and analytical Senior Assistant Merchandiser to join the team. This is an opportunity to play a key role across wholesale and trading functions, supporting business performance whilst gaining exposure across Buying, Product, eCommerce, Operations, and Wholesale.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Deliver weekly trading reports, analysing sales, stock, profit, sell-through, and key performance indicators.
  • Provide actionable insights and recommendations to optimise trading performance and stock management.
  • Conduct detailed ad-hoc analysis to support wider business objectives and commercial decision-making.
  • Analyse pre and post-buy performance to evaluate range effectiveness and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Build and maintain accurate intake, delivery, and dispatch schedules aligned to business targets.
  • Manage wholesale stock allocation, availability, bookings, and deliveries across partner accounts.
  • Monitor stock levels and replenishment requirements to maximise sales opportunities whilst minimising stock risk.
  • Support monthly rebuys and ongoing stock management to ensure product availability.
  • Produce and maintain reports including range plans, sales performance, stock levels, intake schedules, and wholesale launch reporting.
  • Support all buy meetings through preparation of sales data, market insights, stock analysis, and range performance reporting.
  • Assist in forecasting and planning activities to ensure stock is aligned with business and partner demand.
  • Manage purchase orders in line with buying and delivery schedules.
  • Liaise closely with suppliers, logistics partners, and warehouse teams to coordinate deliveries and resolve issues efficiently.
  • Support partners with stock availability, replenishment, and launch planning to maximise sales performance.
  • Work closely with Product Development, eCommerce, Operations, and Warehouse teams to achieve business objectives.
  • Support ongoing process improvements and identify opportunities to enhance efficiency and commercial performance.

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.
