The role

Own MANEL’s wholesale business, grow sell-through with existing partners, and open new accounts in Saudi Arabia and the GCC.

About MANEL

MANEL is a Dubai luxury fashion house founded in 2019, combining French silhouettes with Gulf modesty and presence.

Its occasion wear is made in its Dubai production facility and stocked at retailers including Harvey Nichols, Galeries Lafayette Doha, Ounass, and Tryano.

What you will do

  • Manage department store and e-commerce partner relationships through sell-through reporting, replenishment, assortment reviews, and seasonal buy planning.
  • Recommend assortments to support sell-through and reduce returns to vendor.
  • Open new multi-brand boutiques, department stores, and concept stores, starting in Riyadh, Jeddah, and the wider GCC.
  • Prepare proposals, line sheets, and buyer presentations; represent MANEL at fashion weeks, trade events, trunk shows, and buyer appointments.
  • Lead the wholesale cycle from prospecting and pitching through negotiation, order confirmation, and follow-up.
  • Agree pricing, margins, payment terms, and delivery schedules with Finance before committing.
  • Share order forecasts with Production, follow up on partner collections with Finance, and help avoid overstock.
  • Track buying calendars and align launches with Ramadan, Eid, and wedding-season wholesale windows.
  • Build a network of buyers, stylists, showrooms, and PR contacts.

What you bring

  • At least 5 years of luxury or premium fashion wholesale or B2B sales experience, with a proven GCC record.
  • Established buyer relationships in Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC.
  • Strong negotiation, commercial, and relationship skills; comfortable with margins, terms, and forecasts.
  • Fluent English; Arabic is strongly preferred and French is a plus.
  • Able to travel frequently within the GCC, particularly to Saudi Arabia.

What MANEL offers

  • Competitive base salary plus performance-based commission.
  • UAE employment visa, health insurance, annual leave, and end-of-service gratuity in line with UAE Labour Law.
  • Direct influence on the growth strategy of a fast-growing luxury house.

Success measures

Wholesale revenue against target, sell-through rate by partner, and new accounts opened, especially in Saudi Arabia.

Partner returns to vendor and days to collect partner payments.
