London, UK, United Kingdom Sainsbury's Full time
Job Description
We'd all like amazing work to do, and real work-life balance. That's waiting for you at Sainsbury's. Here, everything in our stores starts out in Food Commercial. Whether it's the product, proposition, packaging or price, or the fact that something tastes great, our team is responsible for all food items available in store, digitally and on demand. You'll discover it's incredibly fast-paced. People here are in it together and not afraid to take risks. They're enthusiastic too, and their amazing leadership team is right behind them. The knowledge and experience you gain here could set you up for career moves, anywhere else in the business. So, if you're passionate about food and just as hungry to learn, you'll fit in perfectly.

Why join us
Joining Sainsbury's means becoming part of a company that prioritises community, celebrates diversity and inclusion, and puts wellbeing above all. As a Ranging & Merchandising Programme Manager, you'll have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and fast-paced environment, shaping the way our stores bring products to our customers. With attractive benefits such as a discount card, generous holiday entitlement, and wellbeing support, we strive to create a supportive and rewarding work environment for our employees. We believe in fostering personal and professional growth, and as a part of our team, you'll have access to development opportunities, colleague networks, and share schemes. Join us and contribute to our mission of providing exceptional service and quality to our customers while working in an inclusive and supportive company culture.

What you'll do
As a Ranging & Merchandising Programme Manager at Sainsbury's, your role will encompass a range of responsibilities focused on optimising and enhancing our product and merchandise offerings. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including category managers, suppliers, and merchandisers to develop and execute strategic ranging plans that drive sales and profitability. Your key tasks will include conducting market analysis, identifying trends and opportunities, and making data-driven decisions to optimise sales and margin performance. You will lead the development and implementation of merchandising plans, ensuring effective product ranging, pricing strategies, and promotional activities. Additionally, you will monitor and analyse sales data, customer feedback, and market trends to continuously refine and enhance the ranging and merchandising strategies. Your objective will be to deliver exceptional customer experiences by ensuring a diverse and appealing product assortment that meets customer needs and drives business growth.

Who you are
As a Ranging & Merchandising Programme Manager at Sainsbury's, you are a highly skilled and experienced professional with a deep understanding of retail merchandising and product ranging strategies. With your strong analytical mindset and attention to detail, you excel at driving effective merchandising programmes that align with business goals and maximise sales opportunities. Your expertise in range planning, assortment optimisation, and product lifecycle management enables you to make data-driven decisions that ensure the right products are available at the right time and in the right quantities. Your excellent communication and collaboration skills allow you to work closely with cross-functional teams, including category management, buying, and supply chain, to deliver successful merchandising initiatives that enhance customer experience and drive profitability. With your passion for innovation and continuous improvement, you contribute to the growth and success of Sainsbury's as a leading retail brand.

We are committed to being a truly inclusive retailer so you'll be welcomed whoever you are and wherever you work. Around here, there's always the chance to try something new - whether that's as part of an evolving team or somewhere else across the business - and we take development seriously and promise to support you. We also recognise and celebrate colleagues when they go the extra mile and, where possible, offer flexible working. When you join our team, we'll also offer you an amazing range of benefits. Here are some of them:

Starting off with colleague discount, you'll be able to save 10% on your shopping online and instore at Sainsbury's, Argos, TU and Habitat, and we regularly increase the discount to 15% at points during the year. We've also got you covered for your future with our pensions scheme and life cover. You'll also be able to share in our success as you may be eligible for a performance-related bonus of up to 20% of salary, depending on how we perform.

Your wellbeing is important to us too. You'll receive an annual holiday allowance, and you can buy up to an additional week's holiday, and we provide private healthcare. We also offer other benefits that will help your money go further such as season ticket loans, interest free car loan of up to £10k, cycle to work scheme, health cash plans, salary advance (where you can access some of your pay before pay day) as well access to a great range of discounts from hundreds of other retailers. And if you ever need it there is also an Employee Assistance Programme.

Moments that matter are as important to us as they are to you which is why we give up to 26 weeks' pay for maternity or adoption leave and up to 4 weeks' pay for paternity leave.

Please see www.sainsburys.jobs for a range of our benefits (note, length of service and eligibility criteria may apply).
