At Surma, we believe in making everyday beautiful through minimal and thoughtful design, pure fabrics, and clothing that moves with the Indian woman. We're looking for a Senior Production Manager who can bring calm to chaos, structure to scale, and beauty to the back-end. Someone who knows that the best garments don’t just come from great ideas — but from great systems. If you're someone who thrives in the hum of sourcing conversations, production schedules, and last-minute QC calls, we’d love to meet you. What You’ll Do: Own the entire production lifecycle — from fabric sourcing to final delivery — across multiple vendors and contract manufacturers. Source fabrics from trusted mills and suppliers, ensuring purity, consistency, and timely availability. Plan inventory based on design pipeline, demand patterns, and production constraints — balancing ambition with availability. Manage contract manufacturing partners across geographies, ensuring quality and timelines are met without compromising on the Surma standard. Implement and oversee QC processes at the manufacturing stage, so what reaches the warehouse is already a Surma-approved piece. Create and refine SOPs that bring consistency and scalability to production and vendor management. Collaborate cross-functionally with design, merchandising, and warehouse teams to align on drops, launches, and restocks. You’re a Great Fit If You: Have 5–8 years of experience in fashion production, especially in managing Indianwear or contemporary womenswear. Understand the rhythm of fabric markets , the reality of contract manufacturing, and the beauty of an on-time delivery. Can juggle multiple vendors, timelines, and urgencies — and still bring calm and clarity to your team. Know your way around fabric specs, tech packs, sampling timelines , and can spot a QC issue from a mile away. Are structured, proactive, and solution-oriented — you plan ahead but act fast when needed. Are excited to build a backend that supports design, scale, and storytelling — all at once. Bonus: Experience working with fabrics like cotton, mul, handwoven, or linen Familiarity with production tracking tools or Excel-based planning sheets Comfort in working with small but nimble teams that are growing fast About Surma Surma is a contemporary womenswear brand that wants to make everyday beautiful through its minimal designs.
