YOUR MISSION & RESPONSIBILITIES AHEAD OF YOU

  • Lead and structure the end-to-end development of seasonal RTW collections, including prototypes, samples, fittings, costings, and pre-production launches.
  • Act as the central link between Design, Technical Development, Raw Materials, Production, and Merchandising, ensuring seamless collaboration and execution.
  • Oversee supplier sourcing, cost negotiations, material feasibility, and technical execution across our global supply chain.
  • Own delivery timelines and budget management, reporting directly to the CPO, while ensuring calendar discipline and meeting margin targets.
  • Drive fitting processes with a strong eye for garment construction and quality, delivering technically sound solutions that honor the design vision.
  • Support the implementation of the PLM system, engaging teams, defining workflows, and ensuring smooth adoption.
  • Ensure consistency, reliability, and traceability of all product data and documentation across platforms.
  • Lead, mentor, and inspire the development team, fostering collaboration, operational excellence, and a problem-solving mindset.
  • Contribute to the selection and onboarding of new manufacturing partners aligned with GANNI's standards of quality, sustainability, and cost expectations.
  • Regular trips to Paris for lookmaking, show preparation, and pre-collection showroom visits.
  • Visit suppliers as needed (specific locations to be determined).
  • Home office options are available, subject to calendar and project needs.
  • Fittings required as part of the development process, to be scheduled in agreement with the manager.

MUST HAVE REQUIREMENTS

  • 8+ years of experience in RTW product development, ideally within a premium, contemporary, or designer brand environment.
  • Deep knowledge of garment construction, materials, and product lifecycle management.
  • Strong leadership skills with a hands-on, pragmatic, and solution-oriented mindset.
  • Proven ability to manage cross-functional teams and complex development calendars.
  • Familiarity with PLM systems and digital tools is a strong asset.
  • Ability to thrive in a dynamic, agile, and creative setting.
  • Fluency in English (French is a plus).
