Merchandising Manager - Intimates and Swim

THE ROLE

The Merchandising Manager, Intimates & Swim role is responsible for delighting Quince’s growing customer base by expanding and managing the Intimates & Swim product assortment on Quince.

At Quince, we believe that everyone deserves access to high quality products at radically affordable prices.  We believe the marketplace for consumer products is inundated with too many options, and customers find product quality difficult to determine and yet frequently pay more for a variety of things that can be delivered at much lower prices.  Our goal is to find the best products in the marketplace and connect the makers of these goods directly to the customers who want them.

Quince has proven the consumer value proposition and has built a loyal, repeat consumer base.  We want to build on that value proposition and continue to scale in both existing and new product categories. This merchant leading Intimates & Swim will be responsible for managing the assortment, revenue and margins, and overall growth trajectory of that product category.

Quince's growth and success is directly tied to the performance and success of this role. The person in this role will be an innovator at heart leveraging the attributes below to build and run our emerging categories strategy.
