Milano, Lombardia, Italia adidas A tempo pieno

Purpose of the role
In this role, you will own and grow relationships with key fashion and lifestyle wholesale partners, acting as a strategic driver of revenue, brand presence, and cultural relevance.

With a strong understanding of the fashion ecosystem, you'll connect the dots between product, influencer marketing, PR activations, and commercial success.

You'll ensure that adidas is seen not just as a sportswear brand—but a fashion-forward leader with a credible voice in streetwear and lifestyle.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and develop strategic account plans for key fashion/lifestyle wholesale partners (e.g. concept stores, trend retailers, premium online boutiques), driving both sell-in and sell-out performance.
  • Act as the primary contact for wholesale accounts with fashion influence—building long-term relationships based on credibility, trend alignment, and mutual brand elevation.
  • Collaborate on seasonal go-to-market process: from product segmentation and line reviews to tailored storytelling, and influencer-led campaign integration.
  • Identify whitespace opportunities within accounts for exclusive capsules, curated product edits, and limited-edition drops.
  • Partner with PR, brand communications, and influencer teams to co-create high-impact campaigns (e.g. Fashion Week moments, store launches, digital collabs) tied to wholesale activations.
  • Translate data, fashion insights, and market feedback into business strategies that elevate adidas' brand image across trend-forward retailers and digital platforms.
  • Monitor and influence orderbook management, conversion, and replenishment processes to maximize account productivity and availability of hero styles.
  • Liaise with the marketing team to boost product presentation, social presence, and campaign execution across digital and in-store environments.
  • Conduct regular market and competitor analysis (SWOT) to stay ahead of trends and advise product and merchandising teams on assortment needs.
  • Collaborate closely with internal functions (GTM, FP&A, demand planning) to drive account growth and operational excellence.
  • Track and report on performance KPIs, ensuring both short-term sales targets and long-term brand equity goals are met.

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

  • Proven track record in key account management or sales within the fashion, streetwear, or lifestyle industry.
  • Deep understanding of fashion trends, cultural drivers, influencer ecosystems, and the intersection of product and storytelling.
  • Strong commercial mindset with the ability to balance brand elevation and business results.
  • Confident communicator with credibility in buyer meetings, internal stakeholder briefings, and creative discussions.
  • Strategic thinking and analytical skills; able to interpret performance data and market signals into actionable account strategies.
  • Agile, collaborative, and entrepreneurial approach, with a hands-on attitude in a fast-moving environment.
  • Advanced proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint; knowledge of SAP, Power BI is a plus.
  • Fluent in Italian and English.

Education & Experience

  • University degree in Fashion Management, Business, Marketing, or Communications.
  • 3–5 years of relevant experience in fashion wholesale, key account management, and retail luxury goods.
  • Strong network within the fashion, streetwear, and media/influencer space is highly desirable.
