Gondolina Shoes has grown by more than 1,200% each year.

Now we are looking for someone who can help us turn that growth into a more structured, scalable and faster organisation.

This is not an administrative role.

We are looking for someone who takes ownership, follows up relentlessly and makes sure important projects actually get completed.

YOUR MISSION

You will work across

- Digital & Ecommerce
- Wholesale & B2B
- Hospitality
- Partnerships
- Retail
- Business Development
- AI & automation
- Strategic projects

You do not need to be the expert in every area.

You need to make sure the right people execute, communicate and deliver.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Turn priorities into clear action plans.
- Define owners, deadlines and next steps.
- Follow up until projects are completed.
- Identify and remove bottlenecks.
- Coordinate teams, agencies, suppliers and partners.
- Improve communication between departments.
- Build processes and operational systems.
- Challenge delays and unclear ownership.
- Make sure meetings generate action.
- Escalate problems quickly.
- Continuously improve efficiency and scalability.

THIS ROLE IS NOT FOR YOU IF...

- You wait for instructions.
- You need constant follow-up.
- You avoid difficult conversations.
- You prefer predictable priorities.
- You think reporting a problem is enough.

YOU MAY BE GREAT AT THIS ROLE IF...

You naturally ask





- Who owns this?
- What is the deadline?
- What is blocking us?
- What happens next?

You are:

- Extremely organised.
- Fast and proactive.
- Persistent.
- Solution-oriented.
- Comfortable with responsibility.
- Able to work across multiple departments.
- Capable of turning ambiguity into execution
- Most importantly:
- You finish things.

EXPERIENCE

- Relevant backgrounds may include:
- Business Operations
- Strategy & Operations
- Project Management
- Management Consulting
- Chief of Staff
- Startup / Scale-up Operations
- Business Development
- Fashion or luxury experience is appreciated, but not essential.
- We value intelligence, ownership, speed and execution ability more than industry background.

WHY GONDOLINA

You will join Gondolina during the transition from a fast-growing entrepreneurial company into an internationally scalable organisation.

You will work directly with leadership and have significant responsibility from the beginning.

If you want comfort and narrowly defined responsibilities, this may not be for you.

If you want to build, grow and take ownership, welcome to Gondolina.

Apply directly through LinkedIn, or if you really want to be part of us, send your CV and motivational letter to [email protected]

RAL will be communicated in the first interview
