About Us

We are a fast-growing fashion startup based in Dubai, focused on bringing style, innovation, and operational excellence together. Our dynamic team values ownership, creativity, and the drive to push boundaries - whether in logistics, merchandising, or the customer experience.

As we grow, we are looking for a proactive, hands-on team member who thrives in a fast-paced environment, is excited to work cross-functionally, and is not afraid to dive into the details to get things done.

Role Overview

You will play a key role in our operations and merchandising functions, ensuring the smooth coordination of product shipments, inventory, and go-to-market readiness. From managing inbound logistics and collaborating with cross-functional teams, to supporting stock rotation and partner platforms, this role sits at the intersection of supply chain, merchandising, and commercial execution.

  • Coordinate with logistics partners to ensure timely inbound shipments
  • Track and follow up on shipments; manage exceptions and delays
  • Align with the warehouse team on inwards, labeling, and stock movement
  • Support store opening and day-to-day operational needs

2. Marketplace & Channel Management

  • Work closely with channel teams to ensure timely stock uploads and go-lives for marketplace partners
  • Ensure correct stock allocation, rotation, and replenishment strategies by channel (DTC, Stores, MP)
  • Support daily operations with cross-functional teams (logistics, channel, warehouse, content)

3. Merchandising & Buying Support

  • Assist in seasonal and ongoing buying, SMU planning, and range building
  • Help monitor sales trends, inventory health, and suggest reorders or stock movements
  • Support seasonal assortment planning, pricing inputs, and data maintenance

4. Inventory & Reporting

  • Own and update master data: style codes, pricing, cost, and inventory details
  • Analyze weekly sales, sell-through, and performance reports for key stakeholders
  • Monitor inventory levels and recommend actions to improve turnover and minimize excess

5. Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Collaborate with the creative team for product content readiness and campaign needs
  • Partner with comms and digital teams on DTC launches, ensuring alignment of timelines and stock
  • Act as the glue across multiple teams ensuring operational readiness and execution

What Were Looking For

  • 2–4 years of experience in operations, merchandising, buying, or logistics, ideally in fashion or retail
  • Highly organized, process-oriented, and able to juggle multiple priorities
  • Strong Excel and reporting skills — you love digging into data
  • Curious and hands-on — not afraid to figure things out and take initiative
  • Excellent coordination and communication skills across teams
  • Fluency in English required; Arabic or French is a plusRole & responsibilities
