Shanghai, China H&M Group Full time

Job Description

Merchandiser is responsible for executing the workflow to secure the best product offer. Now, ‘best deal’ might sound simple at face value. But there’s a bit more to it than that. In essence, it’s about striking the right balance between a few different things. As a Merchandiser you will have the ownership on managing and optimizing the entire workflow and secure the best deal in terms of price, fashion, speed, sustainable materials, and innovation. 

Key Responsibilities: 

Drive development, quotation and order follow up processes as per the set plan/ goals to secure the best deal for products and on time delivery. 

Strike the right balance between obtaining the best price for the company and customers while considering production lead-times, product quality, safety, user-friendliness, and sustainability. 

Build and maintain strong relationship with supplier and ensure the best supplier are selected for each product. 

Monitor suppliers’ performance and manage supplier relations related to short and long-term goals of production by considering all success factors such as price, fashion, speed, sustainable material, and innovation. 

Understand competitive environment and get the correct balance between the expectations of the customer and the objectives of the company's strategy. 

Work collaboratively with the Supply Chain team during business execution, ensuring alignment and cooperation to secure optimized procurement procedures and creative solutions based on data and product knowledge. 

Qualifications

The person we are looking for must have experience in order follow-up & price negotiation. A team player, who can drive towards the common goal and should preferably have extensive knowledge in handling relevant products. Communication skills will also be a key element when deciding who we will hire for the role as you will need to build relationships across Production and Buying Office. To be successful in this role, you need to have strong analytical skills for anticipating potential challenges on a global level, suggesting optimizations, and resolving issues. Most importantly, we are looking for someone who have strong ownership and can work independently. 

This role touches almost the entire supply chain, so you need to proactively manage various internal stakeholders globally, balancing different, sometimes competing—or even conflicting— priorities and somehow finding your way through it all to reach a mutually beneficial outcome. When it works, it’s a symphony of global level coordination. And when it doesn’t, you have contingent strategies in place to minimize the impact. 

What you need to succeed: 
 

Academic background in Textile Engineering is preferable 3-5 years of working experience with garment products Have strong passion on product development and love to work with challenges Have a positive mindset and be creative, strong on problem solving Being fashion knowledgeable and have a genuine interest in fashion trends.
