  • Engage with factories throughout the development process to ensure clarity of expectations.
  • Coordinate internal stakeholders and manage supplier relationships and capacity planning across the supply chain.
  • Foster an inclusive environment where team members can thrive, feel included, respected, and safe, setting clear expectations of behaviour and holding self and others accountable.

Key Capabilities

  • Experience in Product Development in homeware within the fashion and luxury sectors.
  • Strong understanding of fashion and luxury item costing and proven experience in negotiating high-value, high-volume partnerships with suppliers.
  • Planning and organisation skills to oversee timeliness of critical path.
  • Knowledge of sustainability practices and ethical compliance in sourcing and production.
