  • Maintain a system to accurately track samples from product development through production with overseas vendors; receive, log, organize, and distribute incoming and outgoing samples, fabric swatches, and trim materials
  • Prepare, document, and manage outgoing packages to international partners and vendors, including packing, courier coordination, packing lists, and delivery tracking
  • Set up production milestone tracking charts, enter vendor updates including bulk status and shipment ETAs, and proactively flag discrepancies, missing details, or timeline risks to management
  • Communicate with overseas vendors daily regarding sample and bulk status, shipments, timing, and follow-up actions
  • Assist with production trim management, including care labels, UPC stickers, hangtags, and other label requirements
  • Assist in setting up accurate production information in the ERP and related systems
  • Keep the sample archive, storage areas, and tracking logs fully updated and tidy, filing all samples, fabric swatches, and other materials properly
  • Request and document all compliance information and test reports from vendors and labs

Requirements

  • Associate or Bachelor's degree in Fashion Design, Product Development, Apparel Production, or a related field
  • Internship or up to 1 to 2 years of experience in product development, production, or sourcing preferred; prior experience working with overseas vendors and factories is a plus
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, with strong Excel skills (basic formulas, spreadsheet management) highly valued
  • Extremely organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple timelines simultaneously
