  • Produce detailed tech packs/specs for factories and oversee the critical path.
  • Collaborate with international factories and overseas offices.
  • Travel abroad for trend research and sourcing trips.
  • Present trend packs, colour inspiration, and mood boards to clients.
  • Support the wider design team and maintain strong communication with all stakeholders

Person Specification
