Senior Merchandiser
Now Hiring | Technical Performance Wear | Brisbane
The Brand |
An Australian-born, high-growth performance lifestyle brand, built on a philosophy of pushing limits and backing yourself, the brand has evolved from grassroots beginnings into a globally recognised player in the activewear space. It blends technical performance with everyday wearability, creating product that moves seamlessly from training to lifestyle.
Digitally native and community-driven, it has cultivated an intensely loyal following through authentic storytelling, athlete partnerships, and a strong direct-to-consumer focus. Its culture is energetic, ambitious, and purpose-led, championing personal growth, mindset, and collective momentum as much as product innovation.
At its core, it's not just about apparel it's about identity, belonging, and striving to be better than yesterday.
The Role |
You will lead the development and execution of merchandising strategies in your category that maximise sales, margin and inventory performance across all channels, whilst playing a critical role in shaping product assortments that balance brand vision, community demand, and commercial targets.
Working closely with Design, Development and Creative Direction, you'll bring their go-to-market calendar to life through strong line planning, disciplined inventory management, and data-led decision making. You'll stay close to the numbers, the product and the market ensuring the brand delivers the right product, at the right time, in the right place.
This is a role for someone who thrives on ownership, collaboration and continuous improvement - someone who challenges the status quo, thinks commercially, and helps raise the bar across the merchandising function.
The Skillset |
Proven success in senior merchandising roles within retail apparel or a similar consumer-led environment, with experience managing seasonal assortments and commercial outcomes.
Strong analytical capability with the ability to translate data into clear, actionable insights that drive sales, margin and inventory turn.
Confidence leading line planning, assortment building, pricing and promotional strategies that align brand vision with financial targets.
A natural connector who works seamlessly with Design, Planning, Operations and Creative teams to deliver aligned outcomes.
At ease operating in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment, staying close to detail while keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
