Maxima Apparel | Pro Standard Brand Maxima Apparel is redesigning how we run DTC (direct-to-customer) production. Today, a great deal of our production process lives in one person’s head — relayed over chat, tracked in spreadsheets, and held together by manual coordination. We are hiring a DTC Production Manager to change that. You will build the management system for DTC production: the calendars, the material readiness plans, the WIP tracking, the dashboards, the SOPs, and the escalation paths that let this business grow without depending on any single individual. This is a production role at its core. You will own manufacturing readiness and execution from the moment a production order is released through completion — the stretch of the order lifecycle that is currently the least documented and the highest-leverage to fix. If you like turning ambiguity into repeatable process, and you want your fingerprints on how a growing apparel business operates, this is that job. Build the production management system Production calendar. Establish and maintain a master production calendar tied to launch dates, assortment plans, and channel-specific timelines. Material readiness planning. Monitor and plan the materials required for production — moving the business from reactive procurement to planned availability against forecast. Capacity monitoring. Track and forecast production capacity across internal and partner facilities; PLM and ERP as the system of record. Own the accuracy and timeliness of production data in PLM and ERP — styles, BOMs, production orders, materials, and receipts — so that every calendar, dashboard, and report downstream is built on trustworthy data. Document current-state workflows,



write the standard operating procedures that replace tribal knowledge, and define who decides what — and who gets called when something breaks. Design and maintain production dashboards that give leadership and cross-functional partners a single source of truth on readiness and execution. Build exception reporting that surfaces at-risk orders, material shortfalls, and capacity conflicts early enough to act on them. Replace fragile manual processes — stacked VLOOKUPs, one-off spreadsheets, ad hoc pulls — with automated, repeatable reporting. Manage production execution across our DTC business channels, recognizing that each channel carries its own workflow, planning cadence, and service expectations. Support a fast-paced, short-lead-time fulfillment model where speed to the customer is a competitive advantage — without sacrificing quality or cost. Partner daily with Operations on order flow hand-offs, with Logistics on inbound and outbound timing, and with Planning on forecast and assortment inputs. Manage communication and follow-through with overseas manufacturing and sourcing partners across time zones. Take assortment plans and launch calendars from Planning and Merchandising and translate them into executable production plans — materials, capacity, and dates.



PLM and ERP data accuracy and timeliness Inventory readiness ahead of launch Production readiness at order release Production throughput 5+ years of hands-on apparel production experience — running production orders through manufacturing to completion. This is a production role, not a planning or order operations role, and production experience is not substitutable. ~ Deep working knowledge of the apparel production process: tech packs and BOMs, sample and approval stages, trims and materials, decoration and finishing, quality standards, production calendars, and the milestones an order has to clear before it ships. ~ Proven ability to manage China office partners: holding dates, chasing approvals, resolving production issues, and communicating clearly across time zones. ~ Demonstrated track record of building process where none existed — writing SOPs, standing up production calendars, defining KPIs, creating reporting from scratch. ~ Advanced Excel, plus hands-on experience building reporting or dashboards in a BI tool (Power BI, Tableau, or similar). ~ Experience in licensed or sports apparel, including seasonal and event-driven production (league launches, team activations, drops). Production experience supporting e-commerce or DTC in a quick-paced, short-lead-time environment. Experience implementing, migrating, or cleaning up a PLM or ERP system. Comfort with SQL, Power Query, or scripting to automate recurring reporting. This role sits at the center of that investment, with executive visibility and the mandate to build something that lasts. Maxima Apparel is an equal opportunity employer. We consider all qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected characteristic.
