About the role
DEBUTE is looking for a highly organised, hands-on Operations & E-commerce Coordinator to support the day-to-day running of our e-commerce, wholesale, customer and operational activities.
This is a varied role in a growing fashion business, so we're looking for someone who is comfortable wearing multiple hats, works quickly and accurately, and is happy getting stuck into whatever the business needs.

Stock & Product Coordination

- Manage stock transfers relating to PR, resale and rental accounts, influencer/celebrity/press gifting and sample loans.
- Maintain accurate records of stock movements and ensure products are returned and reconciled where required.
- Work cross-functionally to ensure stock availability and allocation are accurately reflected across channels.
Wholesale Operations
- Manage the day-to-day administration and fulfilment of wholesale orders, from order confirmation through to delivery.
- Provide operational support to wholesale accounts, ensuring orders, product information, stock availability and delivery requirements are managed accurately and efficiently.
- Work closely with our wholesale agency to ensure smooth communication and execution across accounts.
- Maintain accurate wholesale order, customer and sales data.
- Coordinate internally to resolve order, stock, delivery and account queries quickly.
- Support wholesale reporting and ongoing account management.
Reporting & Analysis
- Prepare regular sales and performance reporting across e-commerce and wholesale.
- Analyse sales and product performance to identify trends and useful commercial insights.
- Maintain accurate operational data and support the team with ad hoc analysis.
General Operations
- Coordinate across marketing, wholesale, logistics and other partners to ensure seamless customer, e-commerce and wholesale operations.
- Identify issues early and help find practical solutions.
- Support ad hoc projects and wider business priorities as required.
About you
We're looking for someone who is:
- Extremely hands-on and genuinely happy working in a fast-moving, growing business.
- Comfortable wearing multiple hats and switching between priorities.
- Quick, proactive and eager to learn.
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
- Analytical and comfortable working with data and spreadsheets.
- Calm and solutions-focused when things don't go to plan.
- Commercially minded and interested in understanding what drives sales.
- A strong communicator who is comfortable dealing with customers, wholesale accounts and external partners.
- Able to work independently while knowing when to escalate an issue.
- Interested in fashion and excited by the opportunity to grow with an emerging brand.
Essential
Strong working knowledge of Shopify and confidence managing e-commerce product data is essential.

Experience with wholesale order management and supporting wholesale accounts is also highly desirable given how central wholesale operations are to this position.
