We’re looking for a commercial operator who understands product, trend, sell-through and margin and who treats AI as a daily tool, not a buzzword.You’ll own the range. You’ll decide what we buy, from whom, at what price, in what quantity, and when to mark it down.

Not because someone told you to, but because you’ve worked out how it makes you faster and sharper. You can talk concretely about what you’ve automated, what you’ve used it to research, and where it’s changed how you make decisions.
