About the Client
Our client is a leading name in lifestyle fashion, known for their global collaborations across sport, and culture. Their business model blends international and domestic licensing, creating apparel that capture current trends while maintaining a focus on premium quality and authenticity. The team works closely with major retailers and brand partners to deliver collections that celebrate individuality and align with the fast-paced world of contemporary fashion.

About the Role
This wholesale-focused Key Account Manager role sits at the heart of the business, managing key retail partners and driving commercial growth across licensed apparel. You’ll play a hands-on role in bringing collections to life — from shaping seasonal sell-ins and building compelling retail stories, to ensuring seamless execution across stores and online. Working closely with product, marketing, and design teams, you’ll translate commercial data into actionable plans, influence product planning and promotions, and strengthen partnerships with key accounts. The role is Melbourne-based with minimal travel, limited to occasional interstate visits for sell-ins, activations, or major events. It’s an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, creative, and retail-focused environment, loves seeing their work come to life in market, and is eager to make a tangible impact on brand growth and consumer experience.

We’re targeting candidates who bring:
  • Experience in wholesale or key account management, ideally within fashion, apparel, or licensed merchandise.
  • Strong relationship-building skills and a track record of managing large retail accounts.
  • Commercial and analytical capability, with the ability to interpret data to drive business decisions.
  • A genuine passion for streetwear, sport, or youth culture, with an eye for emerging trends.
  • Collaborative approach and experience working cross-functionally within a small, agile team.
