Leading countries in managing local PL suppliers with full responsibility over regional/international PL suppliers, sourcing new potential suppliers while extending the portfolios.

Great eye for details while managing new PL items development processes (lots of steps grasping knowledge from different areas like legal, quality, design). Impeccable time management skills in order to push all the projects efficiently and make sure that other stakeholders involved are following agreed timelines.

3. Analyze communication/promotional activities and take actions to optimize them, sharing best practices across the region.
4. Create and execute different negotiation strategies to assure manufacturers for all PL project (we are still a growing business with limited volumes to secure, so it can be very challenging to find suppliers willing to be flexible in the areas that are crucial for us, core example MOQs).

The exposure to multiple external (local & international suppliers, creative agency, etc.) and internal stakeholders. Indirectly leading a cross-functional team to achieve set targets. Ability to influence others in order to facilitate and achieve targets better and faster. Leading local markets and making sure they are in line with all the regional guidelines, so being able to precisely and concisely explain things is crucial. You are very detail-oriented, structured, and know how to prioritize. You consider yourself as someone who delivers solutions and not bottlenecks to be solved. You are someone energized by the unknown and look forward to learning each day on the job. Language skills: Fluent English and Arabic.
