Sobre este puesto de Product Manager, Costing — Digital Product Creation en Levi Strauss & Co.
Job Location: Mexico City, Mexico
Calling all originals: At Levi Strauss & Co., you can be yourself — and be part of something bigger. We’re a company of people who like to forge our own path and leave the world better than we found it. Who believe that what makes us different makes us stronger. So add your voice. Make an impact. Find your fit — and your future.
We are looking for a Product Manager to join our Digital Product Creation team. You'll support LSCo’s product creation teams — merchandising, design, and product development — as they take products from idea to physical creation. It's a role for someone who's excited to sit at the intersection of physical products (our garments) and the digital tools that bring them to life.
Your focus will be on rewiring how we think about Cost and Margin throughout the Product Creation lifecycle. As part of that work, you will be responsible for selecting the new Costing Platform and completing the implementation of the platform.
You'll own this work end to end — translating the vision into digital capabilities that drive change across teams who use this information every day. You'll work across several business functions and alongside other Product Managers across the Digital organization, and you'll have room to shape how we work together and grow as a product organization.
This is an Individual contributor role. Experience in Digital Costing, Sourcing, or Product Creation tools is a plus, as is any background in retail and apparel
