Watford, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Signet Jewelers (UK and Ireland) Full time £30,000 - £60,000 per year

At Signet Jewelers, home to iconic brands like H.Samuel and Ernest Jones, we believe buying is more than just numbers – it's about storytelling, creativity, and delivering products our customers will treasure forever. We're looking for a Junior Buyer to bring a sharp eye for trends to a dynamic role in our Gold category team, where your impact will shape the future of our collections.

What the role involves:

As Junior Buyer, you'll take ownership of developing and trading our gold product ranges. You'll partner closely with Merchandise Planning and Sourcing teams to build commercial, customer-driven ranges that deliver on sales, margin, and stock targets. You'll also collaborate with our US buying and sourcing teams to bring global insight into your category. Your role will touch everything from strategy to execution – from analysing trends and identifying opportunities, to negotiating with suppliers and managing the product lifecycle across both retail and ecommerce.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Create and deliver seasonal and annual strategies for your category.
  • Build and trade ranges based on customer insight, market trends, and performance data.
  • Work with suppliers to source and develop new product – ensuring quality, cost, and compliance are met.
  • Plan and execute promotions to drive traffic and margin, aligned with our brand identity.
  • Collaborate with marketing, visual merchandising, and retail teams to bring your ranges to life in-store and online.
  • Manage and mentor at least one direct report within the Buying Admin team.
  • Stay on top of product performance, taking action to optimise sell-through and minimise terminal stock.
  • Ensure full adherence to the Go to Market process and relevant legislation, including the Competition Act, Bribery Act, and Kimberley Process.

What we're looking for:

  • Proven success as an Assistant Buyer within a multi-site retail environment.
  • Strong commercial and analytical skills – you're comfortable with numbers and data.
  • A sharp eye for trends, especially in jewellery or accessories.
  • Excellent negotiation, communication, and presentation skills.
  • Experience building effective relationships with suppliers and internal teams.
  • Organised, proactive, and confident juggling multiple projects at once.
  • Previous experience in jewellery buying or knowledge of the category is desirable.
