• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams.
• A flexible, hands‑on, and solution‑oriented approach, with the willingness to be regularly present in stores and close to the field.

We offer the opportunity to join us at a pivotal and exciting moment in our evolution, where your contribution will have a visible impact on our future. You can expect:

• A key leadership role in a respected luxury brand with almost three decades of heritage and a strong identity.
