Job description

At boohooMAN, we’re redefining menswear with bold style, fearless innovation, and a fresh take on fashion that sets us apart from the rest.

With a focus on streetwear, tracksuits & going-out-gear, product is everything to us and we don’t do anything substandard, not now, not ever!

We pay attention to detail, and we keep our products on-point to ensure our customers ‘fits are consistently on lock. We’re constantly responding and reacting to stay ahead of the game and deliver you the best in fashion 24 / 7.

THE ROLE

We are looking for an experienced Buyer (ideally menswear experience), who will work as part of our boohooMAN buying team supporting our Jersey category (Tees, Hoodies, Tracksuits, Joggers etc). Please note this is not a procurement buying role and does require somebody with fashion buying experience.

This is a hands on role and you'll be involved in everything from product strategy and development to delivery and trading. You’ll make informed decisions using insight and experience, and drive initiatives that push the category forward both creatively and commercially.

You’ll ensure product sign-offs meet the highest standards and manage key supplier relationships to deliver on-time, trend-relevant ranges. You’ll also take responsibility for the performance and development of your team, creating a high-performance culture built on collaboration and pace.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

  • Lead and own the product strategy, planning and trading for your category
  • Manage range builds and sign-off meetings with Heads of and Senior Leadership
  • Work with Design to develop innovative, trend-led product that meets customer demand
  • Own the critical path and ensure smooth sample flow, approvals and delivery
  • Oversee cost negotiations and ensure margin targets are achieved or exceeded
  • Partner with Merchandising on frameworks, SWOTs and OTB planning
  • React to trade performance with decisive actions including rebuys, cancellations and swaps
  • Manage and motivate your team, ensuring clarity of roles, progression and performance
  • Maintain supplier relationships and regularly review performance, pricing and capacity
  • Represent your category in business-wide meetings and contribute to brand-wide projects
  • Lead sourcing of new suppliers and complete category-level cross cost analysis
  • Ensure online accuracy and presentation by working closely with studio and ecommerce
  • Collaborate on marketing and campaign briefs to align category priorities

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

  • Extensive experience as a Junior Buyer or existing Buyer in a fast-paced fashion business
  • Strong commercial acumen and confident leadership of range performance and trade actions
  • Proven track record in cost negotiations, supplier management, and product development
  • Strong analytical, decision-making and forecasting skills
  • Excellent stakeholder management and cross-functional collaboration
  • Proficiency in Excel and reporting tools; deep understanding of WSSI and open costing
  • Team leadership experience including coaching, development and delegation
  • Sharp eye for fashion trends and streetwear customer expectations
  • You lead with confidence, taking ownership of decisions and being accountable for outcomes
  • You take commercial risks and learn quickly from the results
  • You challenge your team to improve and drive continuous development
  • You operate with speed and clarity, adapting swiftly to business needs
  • You bring creative direction to your category and inspire new thinking across your team
  • You collaborate with design to translate macro trends into strong, relevant collections
  • You continuously improve processes, templates and ways of working
  • You create a culture where product innovation and individuality are encouraged
  • You build a collaborative and supportive team culture
  • You act as a mentor and coach to your team, helping them progress with confidence
  • You work cross-functionally and communicate clearly across all levels of the business
  • You uphold our brand values around inclusion, sustainability and professional integrity
  • WORKING WITH US

We want visionaries, disruptors, and doers, people who bring fresh thinking, relentless energy, and the drive to make an impact.

    Be bold. Be creative. Be a community.
