As a key contributor within our Paris HQ team, the Wholesale Manager, Europe & Middle East brings both strategic insight and hands-on execution to their work, supporting our global growth while staying grounded in the brand’s DNA: refined, fast-moving, and always evolving.

Our wholesale business across Europe and the Middle East is operated through a mix of key accounts, agents, distributors, and franchise partners, and is being professionalized as it scales. The UK is a priority market within this scope. The Wholesale Manager owns the day-to-day commercial management of a multi-market portfolio end to end, from showroom sell-in to sell-through analysis and reorders, and contributes to the progressive transition of priority European markets from agents to direct distribution.

• Prospect and open new accounts in line with the brand’s distribution strategy and premium contemporary positioning

• Contribute to the transition of priority European markets from agent to direct distribution, from account handover to commercial and operational setup
• Manage the UK as a distinct market post-Brexit, working with Finance, Customer Service, and Supply Chain on pricing, duties, and delivery terms
• Own forecasting and seasonal budgets for the portfolio; track weekly sell-in, deliveries, and payments with Customer Service and Finance
• Monitor sell-through and stock levels, and implement in-season action plans (swaps, reorders, exclusive capsules, activations); build reporting tools, distribution mapping, and market analyses
• Coordinate with merchandising, production, supply chain, and visual merchandising to secure deliveries, product training, and in-store execution; manage showroom organization, sales tools, and the B2B platform (JOOR)

Requirements:

• 4-7 years of experience in fashion wholesale, ideally within premium or advanced contemporary brands, including a proven track record as Area Manager or Wholesale Manager on European markets
• Strong knowledge of the UK wholesale landscape and key accounts; experience with Middle East partners (GCC distributors, franchise groups, or department stores) is a strong plus
• Hands-on experience managing agents, distributors, and franchise partners; exposure to an agent-to-direct transition is highly valued
• Strong command of sell-in / sell-out analysis, OTB logic, forecasting, and in-season performance management, with proficiency in B2B and ERP tools (JOOR, NuOrder, Cegid Orli or equivalent) and advanced Excel
• Fluent English and French (Italian, German, Spanish, or Arabic is a plus); confident presenter and negotiator with senior buyers and international partners
• Autonomous and structured, able to build process where little exists and travel regularly (Paris showroom seasons, London, key European markets, and Middle East partners)
