About the Role :

We are looking for a dynamic Brand Specialist to drive the growth of our Brand’s full-price sales across NEXT UK, NEXT International and SEASONS. This is a fantastic opportunity to become a key player in shaping the brand’s presence and success within a leading retail environment.

Reporting into the Commercial Director, the Brand Specialist will work closely with cross-functional teams including Buying, Merchandising, Design, and Marketing to accelerate brand growth and maximise business opportunities.

You will be responsible for leveraging data insights to optimise product ranging, trading strategies, and marketing activities that deliver results. You’ll build strong partnerships both internally at NEXT and externally with key client stakeholders to ensure alignment and success.

Key Responsibilities :

• Collaborate closely with the Buyer and broader teams on product assortment, using past and current season insights to inform strategy and identify growth opportunities.
• Drive in-season trading activities and stock management to maintain momentum and optimise international sales.
• Lead competitive analysis and review markdown and RTB strategies to protect margin and growth.
• Ensure the brand is consistently delivered to the highest standards across all channels including copy, imagery, social media, and campaigns, aligned with NEXT’s sustainability vision.
• Partner with marketing and client teams to implement traffic-driving initiatives and SEO enhancements.
• Organise and lead regular performance meetings, reporting on sales and driving actions to support ongoing growth.
• Maintain strong communication with all stakeholders, attending key meetings and buys to ensure brand objectives are met.

About You :

You will be a proactive, commercially savvy professional with a keen eye for data and detail. Confident in building relationships across teams, you thrive in collaborative environments and know how to influence decision-making at all levels. Your experience in trading, ranging, and brand management means you understand how to translate insights into action. A highly organised self-starter, you are driven to deliver measurable impact and take pride in pushing the brand forward within a fast-paced retail setting. A passion for brand excellence and sustainability will see you stand out in this role.
