  • Merchandising & Inventory: Translate design calendar to retail: assortment curation by store, size depth, colourways, occasion capsules. Manage OTB, allocation/replenishment, sell-through, aging, markdowns; target healthy inventory turns and days of cover.
  • People & Training: Hire, coach, and performance-manage team and stylists; design incentives linked to KPIs. Run a "Luxury Selling & Bridal Advisory" academy: etiquette, fittings, cross-sell, objection handling.
  • Must-Have Experience: 7–12 years in premium/luxury fashion retail; ≥3 years leading multi-store P&L. Proven success in appointment-led selling (bridal/couture/occasion wear preferred). Strong merchandising/OTB skills and CRM/clientele expertise. Fluent in English + Hindi; comfort with POS/ERP/Excel/Google Sheets; willingness to travel
