Thuma median: 36 days open

The posting

Thuma is seeking a commercially minded Buyer with exceptional taste and strong analytical instincts to help shape our expanding assortment. You will own assortment strategy and business performance for your assigned product areas, translating customer insights, market opportunities, and Thuma’s design point of view into compelling products and profitable growth.

Working closely with Merchandising leadership, Design, Product Development, Sourcing, and Inventory Planning, you will bring a clear merchant perspective from initial concept through launch and ongoing performance. The right person balances creative judgment with financial discipline and moves comfortably between strategy and hands on execution.

Thuma’s Headquarters is based in the historic Presidio neighborhood of San Francisco. This is a hybrid role that will be in office 3 - 5 days a week.

You Will

  • Develop assortment plans for assigned product areas, identifying opportunities for newness, expansion, refinement, and discontinuation.
  • Use customer feedback, competitive research, and business performance to recommend clear product priorities that support Thuma’s roadmap and create Oasis.
  • Define commercial product briefs, including customer needs, assortment positioning, target retail prices, and margin goals; partner with Design, Product Development, and Sourcing to bring them to life.
  • Own the commercial performance of assigned product areas against agreed sales and margin goals; review results regularly and recommend specific actions.
  • Partner with Inventory Planning on forecasts, open to buy, initial buys, replenishment, and product exits, balancing availability with inventory productivity.
  • Recommend pricing and lifecycle decisions using product costs, competitive positioning, customer value, and financial performance.
  • Represent the merchant perspective in product and sample reviews, balancing design, quality, customer needs, and unit economics.
  • Maintain clear assortment priorities and commercial decisions in partnership with Product Development and Sourcing; surface risks and tradeoffs early.
  • Own merchandising readiness for launches, including assortment details, pricing, product information, and selling stories; align timing with inventory availability and channel readiness.
  • Partner with Brand, Creative, Digital, Retail, and Visual Merchandising to translate product intent into clear, compelling customer experiences.
  • Ensure product information, imagery, copy, and presentation accurately communicate design, materials, function, quality, and value.
  • Use feedback from stores and Customer Experience to improve assortments, product information, and future development.

This Might Describe You

  • 5 or more years of buying or merchandising experience, preferably within home or a design led consumer business, with a record of growing sales and profitability.
  • An excellent eye for design, materials, quality, and proportion, with the judgment to distinguish lasting opportunities from short term trends.
  • Strong command of assortment planning, pricing, margin, forecasting, open to buy, and inventory productivity.
  • Experience partnering with Design, Product Development, and Sourcing to take products from concept to launch.
  • Strong analytical skills and proficiency with spreadsheets and business reporting tools; ability to turn data into clear recommendations.
  • Clear communication, disciplined organization, and the ability to build alignment across teams.
  • An accountable, collaborative approach, with the confidence to bring a point of view and the flexibility to adjust as new information emerges.

What Success Looks Like

  • Assigned product areas deliver agreed sales and margin goals.
  • Assortment decisions strengthen Thuma’s design point of view and respond to meaningful customer needs.
  • Forecasts and buying decisions improve availability and inventory productivity in partnership with Planning.
  • Product launches are commercially prepared and executed with accurate information and clear storytelling.
  • Performance insights translate into timely, measurable improvements.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
