At Very Much Indian, we're looking for someone who wants to go there, understand who makes these textiles, and help turn them into collections women love to wear.
What you'll do
• Travel across India, especially rural regions and craft clusters, to discover handloom textiles, techniques and new craft possibilities
• Build lasting relationships with weavers, artisans and vendors, and handle negotiations and follow-ups
• Drive product development and sampling, from first swatch to final launch
• Own assortment planning, pricing inputs and demand planning across collections
• Track development, production timelines, quality and commercial targets
• Maintain SKU data and coordinate with inventory; flag rapid- and slow-moving products
• Read sales trends and customer preferences, and turn them into product opportunities
• Work closely with design, production, operations and marketing teams
Who you are
• 3-4 years in merchandising, preferably in fashion, apparel, or textiles
• Deep knowledge of Indian handloom, textiles and traditional crafts
• Strong communicator and negotiator
• Organised, with excellent planning and follow-through
• Comfortable working independently across multiple vendors and projects
• Good grasp of fashion trends and product data
• Happy to travel extensively, including to remote craft clusters
• Curious about new weaves, techniques and the people behind them
This is a role for someone who doesn't just want to sell textiles, but wants to understand where they come from, who makes them, and what they can become next.
