Elevate Your Career with MFI - Assistant Merchandiser

Location: On-Site Leyland HQ and Travel to our Skelmersdale Site

Salary: Up to £32K PA

Hours: Monday to Friday 37.5 hours per week 08:30 – 16:30

MFI, part of the Victorian Plumbing family, is an exclusively online store that offers stylish and practical pieces to elevate the home. From bedroom to dining room, we offer a carefully curated range that allows our customers to create beautiful spaces.

Are you an analytical thinker with a passion for e-commerce and home interiors? Do you thrive when managing data, tracking global supply chains, and keeping operations running like clockwork?

MFI is growing, and we’re looking for a sharp, organised, and proactive Assistant Merchandiser to join our team.

MFI is a purely online destination for stylish, practical home furnishings. In this role, you won’t just be crunching numbers – you’ll be the engine room behind our stock availability, ensuring our customers can always find the pieces they need to create beautiful spaces.

What You’ll Be Doing

You will be the go-to person for keeping our commercial engine running. Your day-to-day will involve:

Take full ownership of our stock management system, ensuring absolute accuracy across the board.

From raising purchase orders to tracking shipments from our domestic and international partners, you’ll ensure stock lands where it needs to be, when it needs to be there.

You’ll turn data into direction by compiling daily inventory reports, helping our team analyse sell-through rates, cover weeks, and overall KPIs.

You’ll be a vital communicator, liaising with buyers, warehouse team, logistics partners, and suppliers to flag potential delays before they happen.

Whether it's troubleshooting delivery discrepancies, supporting the finance team with reconciliation, or updating our site with accurate pre-order dates, you’ll be the essential link between our departments.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who loves detail and understands that small adjustments in data can make a big impact on commercial success.

You’re at home in a spreadsheet. Pivot tables, LOOKUPs, and more complex formulae are second nature to you.

You enjoy identifying trends, working with figures, and using data to solve problems.

You can manage tight deadlines and high-volume tasks without losing your focus or your accuracy.

You are comfortable liaising with external suppliers and internal stakeholders with equal professionalism and confidence.

You have a genuine passion for the home interior market and a sharp eye for the latest e-commerce trends.

While a degree in business, math, or a retail-related field is a plus, your practical experience in merchandising or a complex administrative environment is what matters most.

Why MFI?

This is an opportunity to join a fast-paced, evolving business where your contributions have a direct impact on our sales and the customer journey. If you’re looking to build a career in e-commerce merchandising and want to work in an environment that values accuracy, pace, and collaboration, we want to hear from you.
