About the role

Our story began when a group of fashion-forward thinkers came together to create affordable, on-trend fashion without compromising on quality or style. With over a decade of industry expertise, we built Edikted – a Gen-Z–oriented online fashion brand, inspired by pop culture, technology, and style. Today, we deliver the most coveted looks, from clothing to accessories, empowering trend-obsessed individuals to feel fierce, confident, and powerful.

About the Role

We are looking for a Supplier Allocation Specialist to join our Supplier Management team. In this role, you will decide which supplier produces each of our new styles. It is a fast-paced, detail-driven position at the heart of our product development. You will own supplier allocation across all categories, make independent decisions based on in-depth supplier knowledge, and work daily with merchandising teams in China, the US and Israel.

Responsibilities

  • Own all supplier allocations for new and repeat styles across all product categories, making independent decisions on the best supplier for each style.
  • Match styles to suppliers based on a wide range of parameters: capabilities, category expertise, capacity, quality history, pricing and lead times.
  • Build and maintain in-depth knowledge of each supplier's strengths, weaknesses and specialties.
  • Work daily with merchandisers in China to review quotations, approve suppliers and drive price negotiations toward target costs.
  • Coordinate with buyers and teams in the US and Israel, including Production, QC and Supplier Management, on targets, approvals and timelines.
  • Identify, vet and onboard new suppliers according to business needs, and closely track their performance during their first developments and orders.
  • Make sure bestsellers and critical styles have backup suppliers, and lead redevelopment with alternative suppliers when quality, price or delivery issues come up.
  • Monitor supplier performance (QC results, delays, development success) and act on it, including recommending blacklisting or deactivation.
  • Track development status across collections and keep our systems accurate and up to date.

Requirements

  • 2+ years of proven experience working with suppliers (procurement, sourcing, supplier management or a related field).
  • Excellent English, written and spoken – must.
  • Strong analytical skills and an excellent command of Excel and information systems.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and the ability to manage high volumes under tight deadlines.
  • Strong decision-making skills and the confidence to take ownership.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and assertiveness, with sensitivity in working with suppliers and global teams.
  • Previous experience working with suppliers in China and/or in the fashion industry – strong advantage.
