About: Originating in London in 1981, OFFICE is a world leading authority on fashion footwear. Our broad, curated range of the latest in-demand footwear styles combined with the energy and passion of our people makes OFFICE Head Office a great place to work.

Office has an opportunity for someone with Footwear Buying or Footwear Design experience who wants to build a long-term career in buying.

  • A strong creative eye with the ability to translate ideas into commercial product
  • Genuine interest in product, trends and customer behaviour
  • Evidence of commitment and follow-through in previous roles
  • A mindset of contributing first, learning, and building credibility over time
  • Commercial awareness combined with attention to detail
  • Resilience and the ability to stay focused through trading cycles
  • Serious about a long-term career in footwear buying
  • Wants to create product that sells—not just follows trends
  • Is prepared to learn properly, contribute to a team, and grow over time

If you’re motivated by product, creativity and building something that lasts, we’d love to hear from you.

Why This Role

  • Real responsibility and exposure from day one
  • A chance to develop both your creative and commercial skillset
  • A team environment that values ownership, consistency and contribution
  • A clear path to becoming a Buyer through earned progression—not shortcuts
