• Drive cross-functional alignment ahead of key milestones (Line Lock, Buy Readiness, PO Release).
• Operate as a PLM power user and process advocate—spotting opportunities to improve data quality and team efficiency.
• Serve as the primary liaison between vendor partners and cross-functional teams (Design, Technical Design, Merchandising, Production, Materials, Trims/Color).
• Clearly communicate technical, cost, and calendar tradeoffs to enable fast, informed decisions.
• Partner with Design and Technical Design to ensure tech packs support innovation, function, fit, and commercial viability.
• Participate in fittings and keep vendor communication crisp, accurate, and commercially aligned.
• Oversee performance and compliance testing; proactively identify and mitigate risk before buy readiness.
• Maintain accurate WIP status and proactively manage time & action calendars to deliver on-time milestones.
• Hold vendors accountable for sample submissions, development timelines, and cost transparency.
• Partner with Production to ensure a seamless handoff from development to bulk execution.
• Mentor and develop Assistants, Associates, and Developers through training, coaching, and feedback.
• Model professional communication, confident negotiation, and solution-oriented problem solving.
• Champion process discipline, operational excellence, and continuous improvement across the team.
