Are you an analytical thinker with a passion for e-commerce, numbers, and home interiors? MFI is growing fast, and our Product Team is looking for a sharp, organised, and proactive Junior Merchandiser to help drive our stock planning, intake management, and trading performance.
The Role
In this role, you’ll be a core engine driving our stock availability and range performance.

What You’ll Be Doing
Stock & Intake Support: Assist with regular WSSI updates, tracking intake schedules, and ensuring purchase orders align with demand plans and Open-to-Buy targets.
Trade Reporting & Analysis: Compile daily and weekly inventory and sales reports to help analyse sell-through rates, weeks of cover, and category performance for commercial trading reviews.
Purchase Order Lifecycle: Raise and maintain accurate purchase orders, tracking delivery schedules with domestic and international partners to ensure stock lands on time.
Commercial Collaboration: Serve as a key link between Buyers, Commercial Finance, and central teams to flag intake movements, delivery timelines, and stock availability updates.
Range & System Maintenance: Maintain accurate product management and inventory data, updating site availability dates, handling stock allocations, and supporting drop-ship range expansion.
Trade Optimisation: Monitor market trends and customer buying patterns, supporting the team with markdown proposals, promotional stock builds, and clearance strategies.
What We’re Looking For
Analytical Mindset: Comfortable working with figures, analysing sales trends, and using data to solve stock and commercial challenges.
Spreadsheet Proficiency: Strong skills in Microsoft Excel (pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, and data management formulas).
Detail & Accuracy: High attention to detail, with the ability to manage high-volume tasks and tight intake deadlines accurately.
Clear Communication: Confident liaising with internal stakeholders and external suppliers with equal professionalism.
Product & Retail Passion: A genuine interest in interior design, homewares, and e-commerce retail trends.
Relevant Experience: Practical experience in a junior merchandising, merchandising admin assistant (MAA), or commercial stock planning role.
