We’re committed to making a positive impact on the world, providing you with diverse learning and working opportunities, and fostering a culture where everyone’s empowered to be their best.

The Product Merchandiser plays a key role in driving the product strategy, execution, and lifecycle management across categories and customers. This position manages the flow of information between design, sourcing, sales, and operations to ensure products are developed, positioned, and delivered in line with brand goals and market needs.

This role requires strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to balance creative vision and commercial objectives.

  • Oversee production tracking and delivery schedules, identifying risks and driving proactive solutions to meet deadlines.
  • Conduct market and competitive research to identify trends, consumer insights, and pricing opportunities that inform line development.
  • Partner with Design to align product direction, color palettes, and feature updates with brand positioning and customer feedback.
  • Develop and present seasonal line plans, line sheets, and product assortments for internal and customer-facing reviews.
  • Analyze sales and margin performance to identify growth opportunities and inform future line strategies.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment with Sales, Marketing, and Operations to ensure cohesive product launches and seasonal readiness.
  • Maintain a continuous feedback loop from 1st prototype through production to ensure adherence to quality, fit, and brand standards.
  • Support the creation of packaging, product visuals, and marketing collateral to strengthen go-to-market storytelling.
  • Participate in trade shows, sales meetings, and customer presentations to support assortment strategy and product positioning.

Required Education and Experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Merchandising, Design, Fashion, Business, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 5 years of experience in merchandising, product development, or related consumer goods categories.
  • Proven track record of managing multiple product categories or development timelines.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills for working with cross-functional teams and global suppliers.
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage complex product data and tight deadlines.
  • Analytical mindset with experience using sales and margin data to drive product decisions.
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Teams); experience with ERP/PLM systems (Apprise, BeProduct, Monday.com, or similar).
  • Passion for product, design, and understanding of retail and consumer trends.
