    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Working with Excel analysing data everyday and completing trade every week. Ensuring that the warehouse and suppliers have all assets and marketing materials, such as samples which I would send to them on the wholesale team. I would send all imagery & PA to external partners and allocate stock to them. I would also create and raise purchase orders and deal with any extra financial bits for POs if necessary. I would help with the process of taking on new business partners and deal with all the admin for them.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I became really competent using Excel everyday, developed professional communication skills, confidence and many technical skills. I learnt how to use Power BI and complex industry-specific systems regularly.
