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.\nWhat 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.\nOUR CULTURE\nQuince 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.\nWe 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.\nOur 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. \nHere, 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. \nIf you’re someone who likes to imagine new possibilities and build better systems rather than plug-in to outdated ones, Quince is the place for you.\nTHE ROLE\nMaterial Sourcing Manager/Senior Manager - Trims\nResponsibilities\nDevelop and execute a comprehensive Trims procurement strategy that optimizes cost, quality, and sustainability across all applicable products.\nBuild, maintain, and expand a global network of Trims suppliers, including tanneries, rawhide processors, and specialty producers, to ensure reliable and competitive sourcing.\nPartner with Product Development and Merchandising to build and maintain a central Trims materials library with curated assortments for high quality and consistency.\nAnalyze and monitor the global Trims market to inform procurement strategies and minimize price volatility.\nEstablish and maintain long-term partnerships with key suppliers, negotiating favorable terms and driving value across the supply chain.\nCollaborate with cross-functional teams to align material procurement strategies with product requirements and company objectives.\nIdentify and evaluate opportunities for cost savings, innovation, and process efficiencies across the Trims value chain.\nCreate and implement risk mitigation strategies, including multi-sourcing and compliance with responsible sourcing initiatives.\nLead supplier performance management efforts to ensure quality assurance and adherence to ethical and environmental standards.\nProvide regular reporting on procurement performance, cost savings, and market conditions.\nEstablish and enforce Trims quality performance standards to ensure consistency across vendors.\nRequired Skills\nProven experience in procurement or supply chain management in the Trims industry.\nStrong negotiation skills and experience building global supplier networks.\nAbility to analyze market trends and develop strategic procurement plans.\nExcellent collaboration skills with cross-functional teams.\nStrong understanding of sustainability regulations and responsible sourcing initiatives.\nExcellent communication and reporting skills.\nBachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Business Administration, or a related field.\nWHY QUINCE?\nJoining Quince means being part of a mission-driven team reshaping retail.
