**ABOUT THE ROLE**

Red Carpet Ready are the UK’s Largest Dress Specialists, just listed as the UK’s 39th fastest growing female-led company. We are a seasonal business which is growing at a rapid rate which means higher demands during a concentrated period of the year.

This is an exciting, varied & demanding Senior Manager role, reporting into the CEO. This crucial position oversees, coordinates & manages every stage from customer order placement, through to our factories/suppliers, through to the customer receiving the product.

Each year, you will also head up the coordination of our new RCR Exclusives dress designs, working with the creative team to implement ideas & roll them out through our factories & suppliers. You don’t need any experience around fashion & design, but you do need excellent attention to detail & drive.

As the UK’s Largest Dress Specialists, you will be responsible for meeting the deadlines of 1000s of customer orders. You must be deadline-driven, capable of problem solving, driving results, & ensuring everything is delivered on time and accurately.
