About The Position

GTM Coordinator Adopting this strategy is crucial because we are positioned as a ‘fashion’ brand within many online partner portfolios. By offering these collections, we safeguard pre-order sales and reinforce Hunkemöller’s strong brand DNA as a leading fashion brand. Additionally, our franchise partners, who operate stores, have a strong need for newness and rely on compelling, innovative collections to drive sales and tell the Hunkemöller brand story. How: The Sign-in Coordinator will manage Monthly OTB Sign-ins, which are separate from the regular pre-order Sign-ins. During these monthly sessions, all product teams can submit products to be offered to partners immediately. Why: To support the evolving buying strategy within Buying, Design, and Merchandise for our fashion collections, the 3rd Partner team requires a dedicated Sign-in Coordinator. The evolving buying strategy shifts from a long-term buying strategy to a more agile, short-term buying process using the Open to Buy (OTB) budget, with a strong focus on innovation and fashion-forward collections. For example, approximately 10% of the Nightwear department’s collection will be sourced from Turkey or other nearby development countries, enabling shorter lead times. This results in additional Sign-ins alongside the regular Pre-order Sign-ins. Adopting this strategy is crucial because we are positioned as a ‘fashion’ brand within many online partner portfolios.
