• Map European markets, identify promising multi-brand boutiques and assess their potential within the GIGLIO.COM ecosystem, building a structured development plan with a clear pipeline;
• Manage the full partnership process — from outreach and model presentation to negotiation and agreement signing — ensuring a smooth transition toward operational phases;
• Support partner onboarding and monitor performance, proposing tailored initiatives and solutions with the Community Store and Merchandising teams to maximise both short- and long-term results;
• Maintain a strong presence in the market, nurturing relationships with retailers, buyers and key stakeholders, and contributing to internal alignment meetings to define priorities and opportunities.
