Overview

This is not a traditional logistics role.

This is a position for someone who understands how product actually moves through a fashion business and how that movement directly impacts margin, availability and cash.

We are working on a senior mandate within a large-scale, high-volume fashion retailer undergoing a significant evolution in how it manages product flow and supply chain performance.

The business operates with real complexity across multiple markets, high SKU density and a constant need to balance speed, cost and inventory.

The remit is to take full ownership of the end-to-end supply chain and to materially improve how the system performs.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end product flow from factory through to customer across retail and e-commerce
  • Design and continuously optimise the supply chain network, including supplier routing, consolidation hubs and distribution center structure
  • Define and manage inbound logistics strategy across air, sea and land, balancing cost efficiency with speed and flexibility
  • Lead customs and import processes to ensure fast, predictable clearance and minimise delays
  • Align inbound flow with demand signals and financial planning, ensuring product arrives at the right time and in the right volume
  • Oversee distribution center operations, driving throughput, accuracy and efficiency across inbound and outbound
  • Own store replenishment and e-commerce fulfilment models, optimising delivery cadence, last-mile cost and service levels
  • Design and improve reverse logistics and returns processes to reduce cost and maximise recovery
  • Work closely with merchandising and finance to manage inventory timing, reduce working capital pressure and improve stock turn
  • Challenge and evolve the current operating model, moving from execution to true end-to-end flow control

What We Are Looking For

  • Experience operating within fully integrated, high-volume retail environments where supply chain is tightly linked to product and trading decisions
  • Proven ability to design, reshape or optimise supply chain networks rather than simply manage existing operations
  • Strong understanding of inventory flow, lead times and the interaction between speed, cost and margin
  • A commercial mindset, with the ability to link supply chain decisions to financial and trading outcomes
  • Experience managing complex, multi-channel distribution across retail and e-commerce
  • Ability to operate at pace and make decisions in environments with high SKU density and constant change
  • Track record of working cross-functionally with merchandising, finance and broader leadership teams
  • Strong leadership capability, with experience building and leading large, multi-disciplinary teams
  • Applications are highly encouraged from internationally based candidates with relevant experience who are open to relocating into the region.
  • The requirement for this role is specific, and we are particularly interested in individuals who have operated within fully integrated, fast-moving retail environments internationally.
