Company: LESTRANGE
Location: Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands
The Role
We're looking for an organised and operationally focused Production & Sourcing Manager to join our Amsterdam-based team. Working closely with our Amsterdam founder day-to-day, this is a hands-on role managing the relationship between L'Estrange and our production partners across Europe and the Far East.
You'll own the supply chain end-to-end: managing supplier relationships, holding partners accountable to deadlines and quality standards, keeping production running on time and on budget, and leading all elements of the critical path.
You have a sharp eye for detail, a calm head under pressure, and the confidence to push back when things slip.
This is a full-time role based in Amsterdam, with equity participation and a clear path to Head of Production as the brand grows and the team builds around you.

- Act as the primary point of contact between L’Estrange and external production partners
- Hold suppliers accountable to agreed T&Cs, timelines and quality standards
Production Coordination
- Manage and maintain the critical path for each season, tracking against deadlines and flagging risks early
- Coordinate weekly production check-ins, driving dates and resolving blockers
- Place and track bulk purchase orders, liaising with the London team on timing and quantities
- Oversee QC processes and material testing, ensuring issues are escalated and resolved promptly
Internal Coordination
- Coordinate with the wider L’Estrange team (London-based) on production status, delays and delivery updates
- Maintain accurate production documentation, WIP trackers and supplier records
- Identify and flag process inefficiencies, proposing practical improvements
The Ideal Candidate
- 4–6 years’ experience in production, buying or supply chain coordination within fashion or apparel
- Confident managing external supplier relationships – clear, direct and organised in communications
- Strong understanding of garment production processes, critical path management and QC
- Experience working with EU and/or Far East suppliers
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail – comfortable managing multiple moving parts simultaneously
- A proactive problem-solver who takes ownership and follows through
- Strong communicator in English (Dutch a bonus but not required)
- Digitally fluent – Google Suite, Excel, comfortable with shared production tools
- Genuine interest in sustainable and circular fashion practices
