The posting

SUMMARY

Punch Studio designs and supplies premium home, gift, and stationery products for specialty retailers worldwide. With creative work led by an in-house design team, the company brings together design, product development, and operational execution to deliver products that meet the needs of retail partners across a dynamic wholesale environment.

We're looking for a Product Operations Assistant to support our retail customer programs, working with suppliers and internal teams to ensure timely, accurate execution of sampling and ticketing. This mid-level role suits a motivated self-starter with a solid grasp of our industry, an aptitude for numbers, and sharp communication skills. You'll coordinate multiple programs simultaneously across different stages of the product lifecycle, where data integrity, accurate data mapping, and close attention to detail are essential, along with strong organization and consistent communication with all stakeholders at every stage. Ideally, you bring prior experience in program coordination within a wholesale or distribution environment and can deliver standards-driven management for our high-profile retail accounts.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
