Grantham, United Kingdom Red Carpet Ready Ltd Full time

**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. Whilst you are not initially managing direct reports, you are coordinating & chasing our suppliers, meeting order fulfilment deadlines & managing your own varied workload. We are searching for skilled & proven individuals - you must show evidence of experience in a similar role & be able to demonstrate the required skills through our recruitment process.

You will be a career-orientated & hands-on individual who is extremely capable, thrives under pressure & ‘makes things happen’ as the right hand to our CEO.

Therefore, you must be able to multitask & adapt quickly. You will also be involved in coordinating & delivering key deadlines & business development projects across the company.

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.

During our peak season, from September to May, your main focus will be on customer order placement, fulfilment, & liaison with factories & suppliers. Outside of our peak season, you will be heavily involved in projects, business development & peak season planning.
