We work extensively on a made-to-order model and offer sizes ranging from standard sizing to plus sizes and customised fits. As the brand continues to grow, we are looking for a responsible and detail-oriented Production Merchandiser who can take ownership of the journey of an order from the time it is received until it is ready for dispatch.

We are looking for a highly organised and proactive Production Merchandiser to oversee day-to-day order planning, production coordination, material availability, quality control and timely completion of customer orders.
The ideal candidate should be comfortable working closely with the production team, tailors, embroidery team, fabric vendors and management and should be able to identify potential delays before they affect dispatch timelines.
This is a hands-on role requiring strong follow-up skills, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple orders simultaneously.
Key Responsibilities

- Coordinate with the cutting, stitching, embroidery, finishing and ironing teams to ensure orders move smoothly through every stage of production.

- Ensure customised orders have been made exactly according to the customer’s specifications.
- Coordinate corrections or alterations wherever required and ensure they are completed promptly.
- Make sure every garment passes the required quality standards before it is approved for packing.
- Coordinate with the packing and dispatch team to ensure completed orders are dispatched within the promised timeline.
- Maintain proper records of fabric, embroidery and production requirements.
- Communicate regularly with management regarding production status, delayed orders, material shortages and any operational issues.
- Help improve production processes and systems as order volumes increase.
