Hush is an ambitious and distinctive fashion brand, with plans to double the business over the next few years. Founded 21 years ago, we are now established as one of the UK's leading online fashion retailers. We employ around 140 employees across head office and retail, creating and selling a beautiful range of women's clothing and accessories characterised by effortlessness, simplicity and a laidback sense of style. Despite the challenges facing the retail industry, Hush has continued to grow – and our company culture still reflects our entrepreneurial roots and relaxed aesthetic. We love hard-working and talented people with a can-do attitude and a passion for what they do.
At Hush, we're looking for an experienced Merchandiser to join our Planning team. This is a fantastic opportunity for a commercially minded merchandiser who loves combining data with intuition to shape successful product ranges.
