Cape Town, South Africa MyRunway Full time

Cape Town

**ROLE OVERVIEW**

Hey there, spreadsheet whisperer
If you're the kind of person who gets a little thrill from a well-organized report, loves turning data into decisions, and thrives in a fast-paced, fashion-fuelled environment—we’ve got just the role for you.
We’re on the lookout for a sharp, super-organized Buying Admin Coordinator to join our growing crew. You'll be the go-to support for our buying and planning teams, helping keep stock flowing, reports glowing, and chaos in check. If you love ticking boxes, colour-coded tabs, and crossing the t’s—this is your time to shine.

**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**
- Creating and maintaining daily reports for buyers, managers, and EXCO (yes, the big bosses )
- Keeping replenishment and stock reports updated so we always know what’s hot (and what’s not)
- Supporting stock replanning to make sure the right things land at the right time
- Keeping all our moving pieces moving, coordinating tasks across commercial teams
- Acting as the bridge between our supply/buying team and the marketing squad—sharing the right info at the right time
- Pitching in on ad hoc admin and operational support for our Buying and Planning Managers

**PERSONAL SKILLS AND ATTRIBUTES**
- A head for numbers and an eye for detail, you notice the stuff others miss
- Next-level admin and organizational skills, you know your way around a deadline
- Excel and Google Sheets are basically your second languages
- You’re a strong communicator and a natural team player
- You’re curious, proactive, and ready to grow in an e-commerce environment that moves fast and thinks big
- Bonus: experience in retail, buying, planning or fashion would be fab (but not a dealbreaker)

**EXPERIENCE**
- To succeed in this role you need to be:

- Computer literate (especially MS Excel)
- Have strong administration skills
- Strong written communication skills
- Previous ecommerce experience would be advantageous

At MyRunway, we’re all about hustle, collaboration, and making big things happen with a tight-knit crew of go-getters. We move fast, keep it real, and have a whole lot of fun along the way, whether we’re smashing targets or hyping the next big drop. If you're ready to bring your A-game and grow with a team that values impact over ego, we want to hear from you.

**MyRunway is committed to transformation and redressing of past inequalities. Our employment equity goals will be taken into account in our selection process.
