Job Description

ABOUT YOU is one of Europe’s fastest growing e-commerce companies. Based in Hamburg and Berlin, we operate at the intersection of fashion and technology. Our mission is to rethink online shopping and make it personal and seamless. This takes more than good ideas. It takes people who take initiative and challenge the status quo. We believe in flat hierarchies, direct communication, and pragmatic decisions. No long approval chains. Just ownership, trust, and clear responsibility. We work hard, but we also believe in enjoying the ride together - over team lunches, afterwork drinks, company events, or a quick coffee in between meetings. If this sounds like you, ABOUT YOU could be the right place to bring in your perspective.

  • Plan and develop seasonal collections in close collaboration with management and the brand building team
  • Drive end-to-end product development and design together with different fashion influencers
  • Oversee buying, production, and quality control processes
  • Lead negotiations with international suppliers regarding pricing, specifications, quality standards, timelines, and deliveries
  • Analyze product performance and identify opportunities for improvement and growth
  • Ensure smooth workflows and continuously optimize processes
  • Provide professional guidance to a small buying team

Qualifications

  • Degree in business administration, textile management, or a related field
  • Minimum of 5 years’ experience in private label buying
  • Background in fast fashion, young fashion, or commercial fashion brands
  • Strong knowledge of fabrics, materials, and production quantities, with an excellent sense for trends, competition, and pricing strategies
  • Really good communication, negotiation, and stakeholder management skills
  • Fluent in English
