WHOLESALE FASHION – DESIGN & SALES ASSISTANTS (2 OPENINGS)

Location: Midtown Manhattan, New York, NY
Employment Type: Full-time
Schedule: Hybrid – 4 days in office / Friday WFH (customer mtg permitting)

We are hiring for TWO positions within our growing U.S. wholesale fashion team. The positions have different experience and skill requirements, so please review each description carefully.

ABOUT THE COMPANY

We are the U.S. office of a large global corporation specializing in fast-fashion wholesale apparel, serving major wholesale, off-price and specialty retail accounts.

Our U.S. office is small, rapidly growing and very fast-paced, with priorities that can change quickly based on customer needs, market demands and business requirements. Speed, accuracy, flexibility and follow-through are essential.

We have a hands-on “can-do” culture where everyone rolls up their sleeves and no task is too small or too large. Team members are expected to contribute, learn quickly, take ownership and work effectively in a changing environment.

Both positions work directly with management, the sales team and cross-functional team members, providing broad exposure to the business and opportunities to learn, develop and take on increasing responsibility. These are excellent opportunities for someone seeking long-term tenure, personal growth, career development and advancement within a fast growing U.S. office of a major global organization.

Please read the requirements carefully before applying. Candidates who do not meet the relevant experience and skill requirements will not be interviewed.
