  • Collaborating closely with our design team to ensure the design vision is well executed, at a high standard and key dates are met.
  • Regularly liaising with Merchandising, Ecommerce, Wholesale and Marketing teams to update status and meet deadlines.
  • Contributing and leading on our sourcing and supplier strategy.
  • Proactively addressing PD and Production issues and supporting the team to resolve them.
  • Understanding supplier capabilities, material, and production challenges, and supporting in finding solutions.
  • Overseeing the end-to-end production process, ensuring adherence to critical path, whilst delivering exceptional quality.
  • Monitoring our department KPI’s against the plan, ensuring we achieve our goals.
  • Continually sourcing new suppliers for improved innovation, quality, price, and delivery.
  • Building strong relationships with suppliers globally.
  • Striving to extend product life, supporting the brand to become market leaders in product longevity.
  • Staying abreast of emerging technologies and sustainable practices, integrating them into our sourcing and production strategies to drive innovation and social responsibility.

  • You have significant experience (10 years+) in a similar role, with experience of managing small teams.
  • You are experienced in PD and Production, ideally within the luxury leather goods sector.
  • You are able to adapt well to change, and are experienced working in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment.
  • You have strong communication skills, be highly motivated, and driven for success.
  • You are highly organised and able to juggle competing priorities, with fantastic attention to detail.
  • You have strong negotiation and influencing skills.
