Conduct QA/QC checks on samples and bulk shipments (fabric, stitching, fit, labelling, packaging) to ensure product meets Rozana's quality standards — owned directly by the buyer given the lean team structure.

Partner with the Planning Head on OTB and with store teams on merchandising and customer feedback.
