About the Role
Aramya is launching handbags — a new category, being built from zero, and you would own the vendor and sourcing engine behind it.

You'll build the vendor base end-to-end, negotiate terms, and ensure consistent, high-quality delivery as we scale this category from the ground up. 

Key Responsibilities

• Build the vendor base from scratch for bags — identifying, evaluating, and onboarding the right factories/suppliers

• Own the full vendor lifecycle: sourcing, negotiation on cost/MOQ/lead time/terms, and ongoing relationship management

• Hold at least two vendors for every core line so the category is never single-sourced

• Run the end-to-end sourcing process — from vendor discovery to first production run

• Negotiate pricing, terms, and timelines to hit cost and quality targets

• Ensure on-time, on-quality delivery from vendors, holding them accountable to commitments

Key Skills & Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience specifically in the bags category

• Strong, hands-on experience in procurement, sourcing, and vendor management — end-to-end

• Proven ability to independently identify, evaluate, and onboard vendors for bags

• Experience owning quality standards and inspection processes

• Background from FDDI, NIFT, or a bags-focused educational/professional pedigree
