ANUPRERNA ARTISAN ALLIANCE PRIVATE

Debipur

About Anuprerna Anuprerna Artisan Alliance collaborates with over 300 handloom artisans to supply sustainable, handwoven fabrics to fashion brands globally. Beyond fabrics, we manufacture finished products—garments, co-ord sets, loungewear, and accessories—cut and stitched in-house. This role is dedicated to spearheading and managing our finished-product division.

What You Will Do

- Manage End-to-End Production: Oversee garment production from sample approval to final dispatch. Plan orders, allocate fabric, monitor cutting and stitching, and ensure strict adherence to the Time & Action (T&A;) plan.
- Lead Sampling & Development: Translate buyer tech packs, sketches, and references into prototypes and final fit samples. Collaborate closely with pattern masters and tailors to refine fit, measurements, and necessary corrections.
- Oversee Stitching Units & Job Workers: Allocate daily work, negotiate making charges, conduct regular follow-ups, and proactively intervene to prevent production delays.
- Ensure Strict Quality Control: Take ownership of quality assurance by inspecting measurements, stitching, finishing, trims, and packaging at every stage. Ensure zero defects before dispatch.
- Execute Style Costing: Calculate accurate costs for each style, accounting for fabric consumption, making charges, trims, washing, packaging, and margins. Secure costing approvals prior to production.
- Provide Strategic Design Input: Recommend silhouettes, detailing, and optimal fabric-to-style pairings for both buyer collections and our in-house ranges. Ensure all designs are viable for production and cost-effective.
- Facilitate Buyer Communication: Act as the primary point of contact for buyers regarding samples, approvals, measurements, and timelines via email, video calls, and WhatsApp.
- Maintain Accurate Records: Keep internal systems updated with current style sheets, measurement charts, costings, and real-time order statuses.

What We Are Looking For

- Education:



Degree or diploma in Fashion Design, Apparel Production, or Fashion Merchandising (from NIFT, state design institutes, or equivalent).
- Experience: 2–5 years in garment production, sampling, or production merchandising. Experience with export houses or small-batch brands is highly preferred.
- Technical Expertise: Deep understanding of garment construction, including pattern making, grading, fit, measurement specs, stitching, and finishing techniques.
- Analytical Skills: High proficiency in reading tech packs and building comprehensive style costings.
- Design Acumen: A sharp eye for aesthetics and commercial viability—the ability to quickly assess a style for sales potential, fit issues, and cost efficiency.
- Language Skills: Fluent English for international buyer communications, alongside proficiency in Bengali or Hindi to effectively manage tailors and production units.
- Project Management: Highly organized, proactive, and firm with timelines. You follow up relentlessly without needing reminders.

Positive to Have

- Experience working with handloom or natural fabrics, understanding their unique behaviors in cutting, shrinkage, and finishing compared to mill fabrics.
- Basic proficiency in Adobe Illustrator or CAD for creating technical flats and spec sheets.
- Prior experience managing small-batch or made-to-order production cycles (12–100 pieces per style).
