You are a proactive and detail-oriented Marketing Merchandiser with a strong background in export merchandising, woven home textiles, design coordination, and product development. Your role is crucial in managing international buyer accounts, overseeing the product lifecycle from sampling to shipment, and ensuring that the design and development align with global market trends and compliance standards. As a Marketing Merchandiser, you will act as the primary contact for overseas clients, including those from the USA, Europe, and the Middle East. It is important for you to understand buyer requirements, seasonal calendars, and specifications. You will be responsible for handling costing, pricing negotiations, and approvals, as well as providing regular updates to buyers on sampling status, production progress, and shipment timelines. Collaboration with in-house design and sampling teams is key in creating new collections based on international trends and buyer briefs.

Researching global home textile trends, colors, patterns, materials, and product innovations is part of your responsibilities. Your role also involves visiting international trade fairs, both virtually and physically, to stay updated on industry trends. Benchmarking competitors and suggesting product ideas accordingly is essential. You will prepare product specifications, packaging instructions, and buyer compliance documentation, working closely with the export documentation and logistics team to ensure smooth shipments.

A deep understanding of export merchandising workflows and buyer requirements is necessary, along with a good eye for design trends, color matching, and product aesthetics. Familiarity with textile production processes, including weaving, dyeing, and finishing, is advantageous. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are vital for effective buyer interaction. An organized, proactive, and solution-oriented mindset will help you succeed in this position. You should have 4-10 years of relevant experience in the textile industry, and preference will be given to candidates from South India with a textile-based background. It is also important to ensure compliance with international standards and certifications, such as OEKO-TEX and GOTS.,
