Character.com..... Whether your favourites are Paw Patrol or Peppa Pig, Harry Potter or Minecraft, Star Wars or Bluey, Character.com is the one-stop shop for all character-based clothing for kids and adults. Our happy clothes inspire small and big kids to express their unique identity. Our mission is to produce clothes that kids feel comfortable wearing, both literally and in themselves, so that whenever they put on our clothing, they're guaranteed to wear a smile! Founded in 2009 and based in South Wales, we're now turning over more than 50 million per year and sell our amazing clothes internationally. We're still founder-led, but in 2021, we secured significant investment to accelerate our development; an exciting phase that we want you to be a part of as we build a team to take Character.com to the next level.

So, what's it like here? Walk through the door, and you'll find a dynamic business with a family feel. It's an informal and inclusive place where people are empowered to succeed, work hard, have fun, and get the job done. We've taken care to cultivate this culture, and we hope you'll thrive in it.

This is vital in helping us achieve our ambition to be the World's No.1 retailer of character clothing, as you will create the public 'face' of our products.

To create the perfect listings, you'll need a great blend of art and science. The science comes from ensuring they are written and optimised with the right search terms and keywords so that they rank high on platforms like Amazon and Google. Therefore, it is important to have a curious mind and be comfortable working with data.

The art then comes in crafting these insights into a great product description with Character.com personality that persuades the reader to become a buyer!

This is a busy role in a team of five that requires someone who's organised, has great attention to detail and has a natural drive to demonstrate how their work can have a direct commercial impact. You'll have great time management skills, a basic understanding of search but more importantly be able to quickly understand and work with seller platforms and listing software.

Finally, you'll work closely with many areas of the business, including the marketing team, trading team, and merchandising and buying, so you'll need to be a confident communicator.
