This is a remote position.

You will be primarily responsible for developing and improving products within our existing ComfyBumpy range - from new variations and designs to running change improvements, together with the Product Development Lead. You’ll manage the whole end-to-end process, from idea validation and supplier sourcing to production handover.

Once the concepts are validated, you’ll source suitable suppliers, request and evaluate samples, and gather feedback from the PD Lead, internal teams, and, where relevant, target users. Before going into mass production, you’ll take the lead in working with cross-functional teams to confirm packaging, MOQ, lead time, product compliance, and quality standards.
