Senior Buyer | Australian Fashion

Are you a strategic and creative fashion buyer looking for your next big opportunity? We're working with a much-loved Australian retailer known for their inclusive ethos, strong customer loyalty, and beautiful product ranges. With a thriving online presence and a national footprint of physical stores, this small but well-established business is entering an exciting phase of evolution - and they're looking for a confident Senior Buyer to help shape the future of their offering.

In this role, you'll report to the Head Buyer and take full ownership of your categories, managing a high volume of SKUs and working cross-functionally across planning, design, and marketing. You'll thrive in an agile environment where your commercial instincts, attention to data, and ability to spot trends will directly influence performance. If you're someone who leads with both numbers and intuition, and you enjoy curating ranges that genuinely resonate with customers, this role could be your perfect fit.

What You'll Be Doing:

Lead the product selection, planning, and buying process across high-volume, seasonal fashion categories

Analyse sales and market trends to inform range development and buying decisions

Collaborate closely with planning teams to forecast, manage budgets, and optimise stock levels

Maintain strong supplier relationships and negotiate effectively to achieve margin goals

Present strategy and performance updates to senior stakeholders, using data to drive decisions

Continuously improve the assortment by conducting post-season reviews and identifying key learnings

What You'll Bring:

5+ years of buying experience in fashion or a related high-SKU environment

A sharp eye for commercial opportunity and trend alignment

Strong planning and financial acumen

Proven ability to drive results in a fast-paced retail business

A collaborative and positive leadership style, with the ability to influence others

Passion for product and a customer-first mindset

Why You'll Love It:

Join a positive, purpose-driven team that genuinely cares about the customer experience

Work in a supportive environment with a strong sense of autonomy and ownership

Enjoy free onsite parking, a generous staff discount, and a convenient suburban location

Be part of a growing, independent Australian brand making a real impact
