Reece Graduate Program - Merchandising (Jun 2025)

Join a world-class Merchandising team

Reece is an Australian icon – we’ve been around for over 100 years. We’re a big business that works hard to retain the little things that made us great when we were small - staying agile and innovative. A key driver of our success is a sophisticated approach to product development and merchandising. It’s one of the reasons we continue to grow at a much more rapid pace.  

Much more than plumbing 

You may know Reece as Australia's largest supplier of plumbing and bathroom products but that's just the start. We're a major public company with over 9,000+ people, 900+ locations and 10+ business lines across Australia, New Zealand and North America. As an essential service, our business has never been more important to community health and hygiene. 

Logistics, technology and marketing are our core strengths. But we also have an in-house creative agency, innovation centre and an insight hub. This broad skill base helps us solve customer problems in unique ways as we enter new markets. 

We thrive on new ideas and are on the hunt for Graduates with the energy and passion to make things happen. We are specialists beyond just taps, toilets and pipes – we’re creators of customer experiences and value across all areas of Bathroom & Plumbing. 

And that’s where you come in.
