Frasers Group is looking for a full time Apparel and Accessories Sourcing Manager based in our Head Office in Shirebrook to manage the sourcing process of Group-branded clothing and accessories to ensure the team delivers an elevated group-brand product strategy at the most competitive costs, in the correct factory in an on-time and sustainable way.

You will initiate and participate in reviews, in-line with the Design/Sourcing Calendar to ensure the sourcing team are contributing to business, category and product strategy. Ensure that the correct lines are being designed/updated, whether that be existing continuity, last year’s seasonal or any new ideas found from business analysis or market place knowledge and research. Document the required specification, quality and usage, ready for future analysis, to allow further accurate cost comparisons and QC processes. Propose the best solution to the RFQ, based on the required selection criteria, including costs/duty rates, sample quality, factory reliability, lead time and container mixing.

At every stage, you will challenge whether we can improve the environmental credentials of product, packaging and factory.
