&lt;li&gt;Supporting new store openings, refits and format development projects.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Ensuring all stores are accurately ranged and updated in line with business requirements.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Conducting regular store and competitor visits to gain market insight and identify opportunities for improvement.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Helping minimise unnecessary workload for store teams through effective planning and execution.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;/ul&gt; 
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What We&#039;re Looking For&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;ul&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Previous experience within a retail merchandising, space planning, category management, or similar analytical retail role.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Strong analytical and numerical skills with the ability to interpret data and generate commercial recommendations.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Ability to prioritise and manage multiple projects within a fast-paced environment.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Commercial awareness with a customer-focused mindset.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;GCSE-level education (or equivalent) and a strong willingness to learn and develop.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;/ul&gt; 
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Success Looks Like&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;In this role, you&#039;ll be focused on:&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;ul&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Driving sales and profit through effective merchandising decisions.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Delivering high-quality, accurate planograms.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Ensuring projects and category changes are delivered on time.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;li&gt;Supporting the business in maintaining effective and commercially relevant product ranges.&lt;/li&gt; 
&lt;/ul&gt; 
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Join Us?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
