  • Negotiate commercial agreements, lead times, MOQs, and freight terms while preserving quality and brand standards.
  • Lead product development across furniture, lighting, and homewares - from concept through to final sample approval.
  • Collaborate with internal Design, Visual Merchandising, and Buying teams to ensure creative vision meets manufacturing capability.
  • Oversee quality control processes, supplier scorecards, and corrective action plans.
  • Ensure compliance with safety, regulatory, and environmental standards across all source countries.

Who You Are

  • 10+ years' experience in global sourcing, product development, and vendor management - ideally in furniture, interiors, or lifestyle products.
  • Strong technical knowledge of furniture construction, upholstery, finishes, and materials.
  • Proven experience sourcing from Asia, Eastern Europe, and Australia.
  • Skilled negotiator with a track record of improving supplier performance via KPI-driven management.
  • Experienced in implementing quality control protocols and managing overseas QA inspectors or agencies.
  • Proficient in PLM, ERP, and sourcing tools (e.g. NetSuite, Airtable, Bamboo Rose).
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

  • Leave on your birthday - because your special day matters
  • Ongoing learning and career development opportunities
  • Generous product discounts for you and your loved ones
  • A warm, collaborative team culture where people and creativity shine
