#RAHOSAADAA #PEHNOSAADAA
We are among the Top 1% Shopify stores in India — bootstrapped, profitable, and operating with industry-leading benchmarks. From a 100 sq. ft. garage to a 150+ member team in just 4 years, our journey reflects simplicity, clarity, and purpose-driven growth.


ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a Buying & Merchandising Executive who will act as the bridge between product planning, vendor coordination, timelines, and inventory execution.
You will be responsible for managing purchase cycles, monitoring production timelines, ensuring quality, and making sure the right products reach the shelf at the right time.
This role is ideal for someone who wants to learn the buying, planning, and merchandising side of a high-growth D2C apparel brand and work closely with sourcing, production, design, and accounts teams.


WHAT WILL YOU BE RESPONSIBLE FOR?

  • Coordinate with vendors for production planning, buying requirements, and regular updates.
  • Create, track, and close Purchase Orders (POs) in coordination with the accounts team.
  • Ensure OTIF (On Time In Full) PO fulfilment, maintaining accuracy in quantity and timelines.
  • Monitor product costing and efficiency, ensuring cutting accuracy and optimizing material usage.
  • Track PO 1st Delivery TAT and ensure timely first dispatches to avoid delays.
  • Maintain and monitor D2S (Design to Shelf) timelines from product development to GRN.
  • Track and reduce OOS% and Sales Leakage Value by ensuring timely replenishment and inventory availability.
  • Conduct quality inspections — in-line, mid-line, and PDI — at vendor locations to ensure buying standards are met.
  • Document vendor performance, inspection results, and production progress for internal visibility.
  • Support internal audits using Auditflo checklists to ensure process compliance and improvement.
  • Collaborate closely across teams — sourcing, production, and accounts — for smooth GRN and merchandising flow.
  • Ensure strong cross-functional communication to keep buying and merchandising cycles aligned and on schedule.


WHO YOU ARE

  • 0–3 years of experience in buying, merchandising, apparel production, or vendor management.
  • Degree in Fashion Technology, Apparel Production, Merchandising, or a related field (preferred).
  • Strong coordination and vendor management abilities.
  • Understanding of production timelines, apparel quality standards, and merchandising workflows.
  • Proficient in Excel and comfortable with data tracking and reporting.
  • Detail-oriented, organized, and proactive in resolving bottlenecks.
  • Strong communication and follow-up skills.
  • Curious to learn how products move from design to shelves and how buying impacts business.


WHY BE A PART OF सादा / SAADAA?

Do you feel out of place in a world full of unnecessary complexities?
Do you find joy in little things?
Are you someone who naturally observes how things are made, improved, and optimized?
Do you believe life is simple — people just overcomplicate it?
Are you excited by the idea of learning something new every day?
If yes, this is the right place for you.
We believe the world is overloaded with complexity. At सादा / SAADAA, we simplify — products, processes, thinking. Better basics are not just products; they are a way of life.


WHAT DO WE OFFER?

A team of empathetic and purpose-driven problem solvers.
A clear growth path towards becoming a merchandising or sourcing leader.
The opportunity to work on meaningful products that impact real people.
A culture built on learning, clarity, and curiosity.
Freedom to explore, experiment, fail, and grow.
