I manage purchasing, production planning, and e-commerce operations for fashion and retail businesses.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently a Purchase Specialist at Fashion Lab, managing supplier sourcing, quotations, orders, production progress, deliveries, and purchasing documentation for fabrics and accessories.
Previously at Pfizer, I planned packaging lines in SAP, developed monthly production plans, adapted schedules to market demand, and coordinated printed-material purchasing across departments.
My experience also includes coordinating Emilio Pucci’s Farfetch e-commerce activities and customer-facing retail roles at the Design Museum, Museum of London, and POLARN O. PYRET. I bring commercial analysis, demand forecasting, stock management, and international retail experience to improve margins, inventory turnover, and operational efficiency.
