About the Role

We’re looking for a detail-oriented Production Coordinator with full knowledge of the production process—from development and costing through shipping. You’ll work in a collaborative, team-oriented environment and partner closely with Design, Technical Design, Sales, overseas teams, and factories to keep programs on time, on cost, and on quality.

How You’ll Contribute

• Direct daily communication and follow up on production status with overseas factories.
• Manage the style master and issue purchase orders (POs) to factories.
• Monitor approval workflows for samples, trims, and fabrics; review weekly WIPs with overseas teams and factories, calling out red flags.
• Maintain and follow up on the Time & Action (T&A) calendar for pre-production/TOP samples, lab testing, and inspections to ensure timely delivery.
• Analyze customer manuals and production requirements (inspections, testing, packing, trims); build production manuals per account.
• Partner with Design, Sales, and Technical Design to drive on-time approvals across all milestones.
• Coordinate vessel bookings and work with freight forwarders to ensure timely deliveries.
• Troubleshoot quality and technical issues with factories and technical teams while maintaining design intent.
• Support costing inquiries; maintain costing charts; proactively assist development and sourcing.
• Coordinate delivery of factory-direct orders to the customer’s freight forwarder as needed.

What You Bring to the Team

• Bachelor’s degree in Fashion/Apparel or equivalent experience.
• 3+ years’ experience in a production-related role (internships count toward experience).
• Exceptional organization and attention to detail; strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
• Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative team.
• Knowledge of BlueCherry (PLM/ERP) a plus.
