Manage and develop supplier relationships, ensuring transparency, trust, and innovation at every stage.
Apply ethical and compliance checks to ensure suppliers meet the brand's standards.
Work closely with buying, tech and merchandising teams to validate suppliers, secure competitive pricing, and ensure business cases are sound.
