A fashion merchandiser selects and purchases goods for a company to sell by reviewing statistical data, customer opinion and price comparisons. Assistant merchandisers assist the lead merchandiser with these responsibilities and maintaining a successful business strategy.

An assistant merchandiser often reports opportunities for growth and about the items with the best and worst selling performance to the lead merchandiser. In some cases, he or she must also manage inventory and distribution, proposing promotions and markdowns as necessary to move merchandise quickly and efficiently. Assistant merchandisers work largely in retail and wholesale clothing companies. They must also possess analytical skills and strong computer skills, especially with spreadsheet software. An assistant merchandiser should be a team-oriented worker with excellent interpersonal skills and a keen awareness of the customer and brand profile of the business for whom they are buying.
