Keeping up to date with market intelligence, specifically around key competitors and future trends; providing insight and inspiration to the Design and Buying Teams.

Regular reviews of existing products to ensure that the ranges remain inspirational and relevant, and to deliver key seasonal trends and the must-have silhouettes of the season in line with our competitors, and forecasted trends.

Creation of new and exciting ranges that innovate in terms of product opportunity and the identification of new and developing trends.

Briefing and liaising with suppliers on new development and designs.

Working with QA and Buying on updating fit and pushing innovation in fabric and silhouette, with an added focus on being sustainable too.

Modernisation and design of product ranges in line with key competitors, driving improved net sales performance and gains in market share.

Delivering key items of the season with conviction, and being accountable for this key area of the womenswear range.

Ensuring harmonisation of trends across all products within Jersey and Leisure.

Strong understanding of the Brand and customer, and the design handwriting for Simply Be.
