The Role:

We are recruiting a Senior Merchandiser to lead the commercial planning and trading strategy across designated product categories. Reporting to the Head of Merchandising, you will drive sales, margin and stock performance.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Planning & Trading: Develop seasonal and annual merchandise plans, manage OTB budgets and forecasts, and review weekly sales, margin and stock performance to identify opportunities, risks and required trading actions.
  • Range & Stock Management: Manage allocation, replenishment and intake across multiple locations, ensuring stock is aligned to customer demand while improving availability, sell-through and stock productivity and reducing markdown exposure.
  • Commercial Analysis: Analyse historical performance, customer trends and market activity to deliver actionable insights that influence range planning, stock investment, pricing, promotions and markdown decisions.
  • In-Season Trading: Take ownership of in-season performance, reacting quickly to weekly trading results and reforecasting sales, stock and intake to capitalise on opportunities and manage changing market conditions.

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.
