Rebe Tile

A day in the life of Rebe Burgess - Buyer & Social Media Manager at MUSE

Reading Time: 2 Minutes

MUSE have cemented themselves as one of Newmarket's top high-end fashion destinations and we caught up with Buyer and Social Media Manager Rebe Burgess to get the low-down on what she gets up to on a day to day basis...

6:00am

I‘m a morning person - I get up at 6.00am most workdays and go to Pilates or for a run! Followed by a smoothie and then get ready for the day ahead.

9:00am

Coffee! My favourite morning coffee spot is Altezano in Newmarket (the savoury brioche there is so hard to turn down) I get it to takeaway then I head in to MUSE. I catch up with the gorgeous MUSE team over coffee before opening up the store. I am obsessed with our beautiful work family.

9:30am

I usually have a quick debrief with Milly, our Operations Manager about any stock or buying related admin, and then Sophie, our Digital Co-ordinator which usually involves organising our e-commerce shoots, website, social media and any other content we need for the day or week ahead.

10:00am

I start to tackle my mountain of emails and any other urgent buying issues that need to be addressed. We have just finished ordering for Spring/Summer 2020, for February deliveries and now I am urgently scheduling appointments for my next buying trip to Paris in January for Pre-Fall 2020.

11:00am

I get underway with our social media posting – styling and trying on fresh new product that we have received in-store. We like to get everything up on our Instagram page as soon as possible, this is the best way for our customers to see the new pieces that have arrived.

12:30pm

Lunch. My favourite Newmarket spots include The Candy Shop, &Sushi, L’affare, and the $11 panini and side salad at Bambina. Followed by an iced maple latte from Best Ugly Bagels (if you haven’t, try it with soy milk! It’s so good).

3:00pm

I like to spend my afternoons on the shop floor, the best part of the job is seeing and styling all our beautiful clients.

5:00pm

Clock off! Head home, have dinner with the boyfriend. Often after dinner is when I dedicate time to work on my footwear & accessory label Rebe, followed by a shower, tea and watching something in bed.

10:30pm

Night! x
