Merchandising Manager - Fragrance & Home Care

The Merchandising Manager, Fragrance & Home Care role is responsible for delighting Quince's growing customer base by expanding the Fragrance product assortment and launching and managing Home Care on Quince.

At Quince, we believe that everyone deserves access to high quality products at radically affordable prices.

Our goal is to find the best products in the marketplace and connect the makers of these goods directly to the customers who want them. Quince has proven the consumer value proposition in the apparel and accessories categories and has built a loyal, repeat consumer base.
