<div class="content-intro"><p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>ABOUT QUINCE</strong></span></p> <p>Quince is a destination for builders, creators, innovators, and operators who want to come together and challenge the status quo. Our mission is simple: make really high quality essentials for really low prices, fairly and sustainably. We deliver on that mission through a unique manufacturer-to-consumer (M2C) model eliminating the layers of traditional retail that add cost and result in consumers paying more than they need to. We find, build relationships with, and work directly with the manufacturing partners behind some of the world’s finest products. From there, our teams design smart, efficient operational processes and build and deploy proprietary technology, AI, and analytics to help us scale fast.</p> <p>What began with a small assortment of elevated basics has quickly grown into a cross-category brand spanning apparel, accessories, home goods, and more. Today, tens of millions of people across a growing number of countries come – and return – to Quince because they trust us to deliver.</p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>OUR CULTURE</strong></span></p> <p>Quince is a culture built for builders by builders. Our way of working starts with a blank sheet of paper. We question conventional thinking, use technology and data to uncover new opportunities, and move quickly to turn ideas into reality. We aren’t interested in replicating how others do retail. We’re building a better way – at a speed and scale unlike anything that’s been done before.</p> <ul> <li>We dream big and chase the hard problems others shy away from. Rejecting long-held assumptions is part of our company's DNA. Where conventional wisdom says you have to choose – soft or durable, speed or rigor, quality or price – we ask why that trade-off has to exist in the first place.</li> <li>Our pace is fast and the bar is high because our customers expect a lot from us and we refuse to let them down. We believe the best results come from challenging ourselves, learning from one another, and building on each other's strengths. </li> <li>Here, responsibility is not determined by role, tenure, or seniority. Every team member - no matter their level - has the opportunity to drive our business and shape our trajectory. </li> </ul> <p>If you’re someone who likes to imagine new possibilities and build better systems rather than plug-in to outdated ones, Quince is the place for you.</p></div><p data-renderer-start-pos="2317" data-local-id="6a0d0d38-3057-4834-9012-12f09f19e465"><strong data-renderer-mark="true"><span class="fabric-text-color-mark" data-renderer-mark="true" data-text-custom-color="#0747a6"><u data-renderer-mark="true">THE ROLE </u></span></strong></p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="2328" data-local-id="6d5afd27-5970-45c1-b675-f5df64663cbf"><strong data-renderer-mark="true"><span class="fabric-text-color-mark" data-renderer-mark="true" data-text-custom-color="#0747a6">Sourcing Director, Apparel </span></strong></p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="2347" data-local-id="f6597815-fb6f-48c2-a22a-55ab8b3f15f3"><span class="fabric-text-color-mark" data-renderer-mark="true" data-text-custom-color="#0747a6">We are seeking a Sourcing Director</span> <span class="fabric-text-color-mark" data-renderer-mark="true" data-text-custom-color="#0747a6">to join our growing team, who will lead the tea to drive the category growth, building up a world class supply chain in Quince. </span></p> <p data-renderer-start-pos="2690" data-local-id="e0c03b8d-8a8f-42ae-b3e9-26b5a2308ae6"><strong data-renderer-mark="true"><span class="fabric-text-color-mark" data-renderer-mark="true" data-text-custom-color="#0747a6">Responsibilities</span></strong></p> <ul> <li>Develop and implement the end-to-end supply chain and sourcing strategy for the apparel categories (top/bottom, Knits), including a multi-sourcing approach to ensure resilience.</li> <li>Onboard new manufacturing partners to the Quince direct-to-consumer (D2C) model and provide coaching on operating within a rapid replenishment, M2C (Manufacturer-to-Consumer) environment.</li> <li>Educate partners on the Quince Operating System (OS), covering:</li> <ul> <li><strong>Operational Excellence:</strong> Fostering rapid lead times and a consumer-oriented approach.</li> <li><strong>Financial Model:</strong> Achieving high Return on Invested Capital (ROIC).</li> <li><strong>Technical Integration:</strong> Proficient use of the Vendor Portal.</li> </ul> <li>Drive continuous improvement to achieve key performance indicators:</li> </ul> <ul> <li><strong>Quality:</strong> Defect rate less than 0.5%.</li> <li><strong>Speed & Accuracy:</strong> Replenishment Lead Time under 14 days.</li> <li><strong>Availability:</strong> In-stock rate exceeding 95%.</li> <li><strong>Financial Impact:</strong> Margin-accretive performance.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>Lead Catalog Expansion in collaboration with Merchandising and Product Development (PD) teams, successfully launching new styles and colors approved through the New Product Creation (NPC) process.</li> <li>Conduct structured Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) with the management of each partner, focusing on strategic alignment, business performance highlights, identified areas for improvement, and future ob
