- You’ll regularly analyze the market, competition, and target audiences to identify relevant opportunities, product line ideas, and product potential.
- You identify trends early on and translate them into viable product ideas—through trade shows, store visits, competitor analysis, and a keen understanding of our customers.
- For design and product development, you create clear briefings that address collection strategy, target audience, pricing structure, fit, quality, and commercial potential.
- You’ll oversee the development of new products and the refinement of existing bestsellers, focusing on fit, materials, functionality, USP, and brand messaging.
- As the link between design, product development, sourcing, sales, and marketing, you’ll ensure that product ideas, execution, placement, and communication align.
- You’ll support Sales and Marketing with product knowledge and market insights—including during collection meetings, collection handoffs, and customer visits.
- Together with Marketing and Sales, you’ll develop product-specific USPs for compelling communication with customers and retailers.
- You keep an eye on manufacturers, quality standards, and sourcing options, and contribute ideas for new materials, suppliers, and product-related improvements.
What you bring to the table:
- A college degree or vocational training in product management, fashion design, textiles, apparel technology, or a comparable qualification forms the foundation of your expertise.
- You already have experience in product or project management, ideally in the fashion or textile industry.
- You are familiar with collections, materials, fits, and production processes—or are eager to quickly familiarize yourself with these topics.
- You can analyze trends, customer needs, and market dynamics and use them to develop relevant product ideas.
- You use sales figures, market information, and customer feedback to prepare analytically and commercially sound decisions.
- You are known for your structured, independent, and solution-oriented approach to work.
- You thrive on and enjoy cross-functional collaboration with Design, Sales, Sourcing, and Marketing.
- Short lines of communication, direct interaction, and a hands-on mentality align with your work style.
- Customer engagement, trade shows, and store visits are important sources for you to further develop products in line with market needs.
- You communicate confidently in German and English.
Here’s what you can look forward to:
- A permanent position at an established, medium-sized family-owned company with over 50 years of experience in women’s pants.
