At ASICS, we’re more than just a brand; we're a movement. A movement of movement, propelled by the belief that motion strengthens the body and uplifts the mind. Our name itself, an acronym for "Anima Sana in Corpore Sano" (a Sound Mind in a Sound Body), encapsulates this commitment. Since taking our first step in Japan in 1949, our journey has been about more than just reaching the finish lines or clocking the fastest times. It's about the joy of moving and it's open to all.

• Ensure timely product finalisation and approval before bulk orders whilst maintaining adherence to calendars.
• Create and maintain tech packs, specifications, size tables, and fabric and trim selections with accurate and timely data entry in systems.

You have the following skills:

• 4-5 years of relevant experience in the garment or sportswear industry.

• Proficiency in Excel, including VLOOKUP and pivot tables.
