  • Assist with product set-up, ensuring product details, pricing, imagery and other information are accurate and complete.

  • Help maintain product and brand information across internal systems and trackers.

  • Support the preparation of seasonal range reviews, buying meetings and category presentations.

  • A collaborative team member who enjoys working with colleagues across different functions.

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and respond positively to changing priorities.

  • Previous internship or work experience in fashion retail, buying or merchandising is helpful but not essential.

What’s In It for You?

  • Gain practical experience of luxury fashion buying within a leading digital retailer.

  • Learn how a Kids assortment is researched, selected, planned and launched across digital platforms.
