Full Job Description

Kids Baby Apparel Merchant Bass Pro Shops · Springfield, MO · On-site
The Opportunity
This isnt a replenishment role. It isnt a spreadsheet job. Its a brand-building role for a merchant who obsesses over product, knows the kids customer cold, and believes that great assortments tell a story.
Were building something meaningful inside one of Americas most iconic retail brands — a kids and baby apparel business that reflects the same quality, intention, and brand conviction that Bass Pro Shops brings to everything it does. We need a merchant whos done this before and wants to own it.

What Youll Do
Youll lead the full product cycle for Kids and Baby — from brand strategy and trend identification through product development, assortment architecture, pricing, and in-season management. Youll develop proprietary product that looks and feels like it belongs in the best specialty kids retailers in the country, and youll partner cross-functionally with design, PD, planning, marketing, and creative to bring it to life across retail, digital, and catalog.
Youll also own the financial performance of your business. That means building and managing your OTB in close partnership with Merchandise Planning, developing category financial plans that support overall company goals, and making sharp in-season decisions on inventory, markdowns, and promotional activity to maximize productivity and profitability. The best merchants here are as comfortable in a financial review as they are in a product line review — and they move fluidly between both.
This role has real authority. Youll set the vision, build the assortment, negotiate with vendors, and own the results.

Who You Are

A merchant first. You think in terms of customer, product, and brand before you think in terms of spreadsheets — but you can read a financial plan as fluently as you can read a trend board
You grew up in specialty — Childrens Place, Gap Kids, Carters, or similar — and you know what it means to build a kids brand with real point of view
You can move from big-picture brand strategy to SKU-level detail without losing altitude
You have strong instincts for trend, color, and fit — and the analytical chops to back your decisions with data
Youve developed proprietary product and understand the full development cycle from concept to floor
You understand OTB management, open-to-buy discipline, and how to partner with planning to build a financially sound assortment
You lead with conviction, collaborate naturally, and make your team better

Experience 5 years in apparel merchandising, ideally with kids or baby specialty experience
