COMMERCIAL
The Commercial team drives our strategic partnerships with the world's leading brands and boutiques to source the best selection and optimise sales channels for our partners. Their work offers our customers access to incredible products and the most extensive selection of luxury for endless style.
THE ROLE
The Director of Brand Management (E-concessions) is responsible for leading a 550-brand portfolio managed by a team of 20+ Brand Managers accountable for partners’ sales growth, supply expansion and price competitiveness.
The role acts as the primary internal and external voice for Brands, from representing brand interests within the organisation to leading commercial conversations directly with top Fashion & Luxury Brand partners, and works cross-functionally with Business Development, Merchandising, Planning & Analytics, Marketing, Private Client and Operations teams to align on growth strategy, forecasting, assortment opportunities and portfolio-wide initiatives.
You are a natural people leader, comfortable managing distributed teams across geographies and building the trust needed to influence stakeholders at every level, internally and externally. You bring sound commercial judgement, using data to get to the root of a problem and moving quickly from insight to action. Comfortable operating with autonomy, you balance long-term strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, and are resilient enough to keep BAU running smoothly while managing multiple high-impact projects in parallel.
