Melbourne, Australia Talent Effect Pty Ltd Full time

Kitchen and Homewares - bloody lovely team
- Northern Suburbs location - Hybrid & Flex
- A growth opportunity - this business is on the move & so may be your salary

**Company Overview**

A specialist omnichannel retailer with a deep family heritage this is a place where relationships and aligned values are paramount. The business prides itself in knowing that customers are at the heart of everything they do and place integrity above all else. This business is on a growth trajectory with significant store expansion planned for the back half of this year as well as continued growth through their eCommerce offering. As such, there is an opportunity to be part of this humble and authentic culture and a business poised to blow their targets out of the park.

- You will source and identify new product ranges that align with the overall business direction through innate commercial merchandise buying skills

- With excellent communication skills you will work with local and overseas suppliers to ensure success in the delivery of your portfolio.

**You will need**:
