Job Description

We’re hiring a Merchandiser / Stock Planner to help strengthen the supply chain engine inside a fast-growth consumer brand.

This is a practical, commercially aware role for someone who understands stock planning, replenishment, buying coordination and supplier follow-up, and who wants to help a scaling product business operate with more control and consistency.

The business has grown from zero to more than £20m revenue in under three years and now needs stronger ownership across stock planning and replenishment as complexity increases across launches, hero products, packaging and multi-channel growth.

This is a hybrid role with 3 days per week in the HQ in central Chelthenham.

If you’re excited by the idea of helping a fast-growth consumer brand plan stock better, buy better and operate more smoothly, we’d love to hear from you.

What you’ll do

• Own day-to-day stock planning and inventory visibility across key product and packaging lines

• Manage replenishment and buying coordination across finished goods and related supply needs

• Raise and track purchase orders accurately and on time

• Work closely with suppliers to keep orders moving and issues surfaced early

• Support stock readiness across launches, campaigns and key trading periods

• Bring better awareness of stock cover, lead time, demand timing and cash implications into everyday decisions

• Work closely with Supply Chain, Finance, Logistics, Operations and Product teams to keep stock planning aligned

What we’re looking for

• Experience in stock planning, merchandising, buying or supply chain in a product-led business

• Strong attention to detail and good organisational discipline

• Confidence handling replenishment, supplier communication and stock tracking

• Commercial awareness around stock, service level, margin and cash implications

• Comfortable working at pace in a scale-up or founder-led environment

• Reliable, proactive and low ego

Why this role stands out

• Meaningful ownership inside a fast-growth product business

• Opportunity to help build stronger operational discipline as the company scales

• Cross-functional visibility across supply chain, finance, logistics, operations and product

• Fast-moving environment with real room to grow

• Strong package and supportive team environment
