A Rare Opportunity to Build, Influence & Lead
Executive 2000 Institute has been exclusively mandated to identify an exceptional merchandising leader for one of North America’s most respected and design-driven retail organizations in the furniture and home décor industry.
This is not simply another merchandising role.
This is a high-impact executive leadership opportunity for a visionary merchant capable of influencing the future direction of a rapidly evolving retail organization entering a major phase of expansion across Canada and the United States.
Reporting directly to the President, the selected leader will play a pivotal role in shaping global sourcing strategy, product vision, private label development, merchandising innovation, supplier partnerships, and overall commercial growth.
The ideal candidate is both strategic and operational — someone capable of transforming trends into commercially successful assortments while building a world-class merchandising and sourcing organization.

Merchandising strategy and assortment architecture
Global sourcing and procurement initiatives
Vendor negotiations and offshore partnerships
Product development and commercialization

✔ Proven ability to build commercially successful assortments, lead high-performing teams, influence executive leadership, and drive profitable growth.
✔ Entrepreneurial, hands-on, agile leadership style.

Direct partnership with the President
Significant executive influence
Strong compensation flexibility for the right individual
Long-term succession potential
Opportunity to shape the future of a growing retail organization
A culture focused on innovation, speed, and entrepreneurial thinking
