Merchandiser

Dinny Hall is looking for a commercially minded, numerate Merchandiser to support stock, margin, trading and reporting across our five London boutiques, Liberty concession and ecommerce channel.

Based in Farringdon, London, the successful applicant will report to the Head of Merchandising, with cross-functional collaboration with Creative, Retail and Finance teams, working in a varied, hands-on role at the heart of a small, fast-moving business, spanning day-to-day store merchandising through to trade reporting, buying support and pricing. The role will suit someone with a solid merchandising foundation who thrives on variety and wants to broaden their experience and grow with the brand, rather than someone looking for a narrow specialism.

As a detail-oriented Merchandiser who's proactive in spotting issues early and keen to build their merchandising skills, the successful applicant will support the merchandise function with a structured, analytical approach, ensuring on-time delivery of product to meet trading requirements and helping to balance inventory, range assortment and margin objectives to achieve sustained growth.

Key Responsibilities of the Merchandiser

Buying & Product Launch Support:

• End-to-end planning for flow, continuity and seasonal collection launches
• Provide performance insights and recommendations to inform decisions on range, pricing and assortment
• Raise purchase orders for new collections
• Inform the wider team of new delivery launches, ensuring stores and ecommerce are ready to trade
• Create SKUs for new collections in Bright Pearl, ensuring clean, accurate product data

Margin:

• Drive cost discussions with suppliers within agreed commercial parameters
• Full price review process, ensuring pricing is commercially sound and competitively positioned
• Implement price changes accurately in Bright Pearl and across wholesale/retail partner systems
• Contribute to pricing for new collections, working with the Creative and Finance teams
• Query and reconcile cost prices with suppliers, ensuring margin integrity

Trade Reporting & Analysis:

• Produce weekly, monthly and quarterly trade reports with channel-level commentary across boutiques, concession and ecommerce
• Analyse promotional and sale performance, drawing out clear, actionable insight for the MD and wider team
• Provide weekly trade information, promotion tracking and trading updates to keep the business aligned
• Monitor performance against store targets, flagging risks and opportunities as trade develops

Sale & Promotional Planning:

• Summer and winter sale analysis, including product selection and stock allocation
• Compile the sample sale list
• Coordinate sample sales and other stock-driven trading events from planning through to execution

Stock & Inventory:

• Monitor stock across all boutiques, Liberty concession and ecommerce, ensuring accurate, well-balanced availability by style, size and location
• Review and adjust store allocation levels each season
• Organise and run seasonal stock takes, reconciling counts against Bright Pearl and resolving discrepancies
• Review product lifecycle regularly, identifying slow movers, best sellers and end-of-life candidates to support markdown, replenishment and lifecycle decisions

What Dinny Hall is looking for:

• At least 2 years' merchandising, buying or trading experience gained within jewellery, fashion or luxury retail
• Experience working across both store-level merchandising and trade reporting
• Comfortable operating in a small-to-mid-sized business, without the support of a large specialist team
• Numerate and analytical, with genuine enjoyment of trading and interrogating the numbers
• Developing negotiation skills, with confidence supporting cost price discussions with suppliers
• Highly organised and systematic, able to manage multiple concurrent workstreams and deadlines
• A generalist mindset, happy to move between hands-on store merchandising and higher-level central reporting
• Clear communicator, comfortable presenting trade analysis to the MD and wider team
• Self-starting and reliable, able to take ownership of reporting and support critical trading moments (sales, launches, stock takes), seeking guidance where needed
• Hands-on experience with Bright Pearl (or a comparable ERP/stock management system) is a plus.

Why Join Dinny Hall

This role offers genuine variety and real room to develop within a well-loved, established British jewellery brand. You'll work closely with the MD, Product Team and Creative Director, with visibility across the full commercial cycle from buying and pricing new collections through to trading them in store and online, in a business where your impact on the numbers is immediate and visible.

We're a fun, energetic and creative team, small enough that everyone's contribution genuinely counts, but ambitious about where we're taking the brand. You'll be working with genuinely gorgeous product, at a moment where the business is going through exciting transformation and modernisation, so there's real scope to help shape what comes next rather than just maintain what's already there.
