Job Description

Job Description

The Role

This is not a traditional administrative assistant role.

We are looking for a commercially minded, detail-oriented apparel professional who understands garment construction, costing fundamentals, and cross-border manufacturing coordination.

You will work closely with Senior Sales Managers to ensure seamless execution across sampling, costing, production follow-up, and client communication — acting as a key bridge between the U.S. sales office and our global production teams.

Key Responsibilities

Commercial & Account Support

· Support Senior Sales Managers in managing strategic U.S. accounts

· Assist in preparing quotations, cost sheets, and margin analysis

· Coordinate sample development timelines and follow up with internal teams

· Track order status, production progress, and delivery schedules

Technical & Product Coordination

· Review tech packs and assist in translating customer requirements into production-ready instructions

· Work closely with sourcing and production teams to ensure fabric, trim, and garment specifications are accurately executed

· Help resolve basic production or quality issues through proactive communication

Bilingual Communication & Global Coordination

· Act as a communication bridge between U.S. clients and overseas factories (China, Egypt, Bangladesh, etc.)

· Translate and clarify technical or commercial information when necessary

· Ensure information flow between internal teams and customers is timely and accurate

Data & Process Management

· Maintain organized records of costing sheets, order summaries, and client communication

· Support reporting preparation for sales performance tracking

· Assist in improving workflow efficiency and internal coordination processes

Qualifications & Experience

· Solid understanding of garment construction, fabrics, trims, and basic costing structure

· Experience supporting U.S. retail brands or private-label programs is a plus

· Fluency in Mandarin Chinese (spoken and written required)

· Professional English communication skills (written and verbal)

· Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities

· Authorized to work in the United States

· Willingness to travel internationally often to overseas production bases, such as China, Bangladesh and Egypt, to coordinate sampling and production audits.
