Head of Wholesale

Head of Wholesale

You believe business can be a force for good and you know how to make it grow.

You get energy from opening new markets, building strong partnerships and taking ownership of growth. You don’t wait for direction; you set it. You combine commercial sharpness with curiosity and you care about doing business the right way.

At O My Bag, we make timeless leather bags that do good, for the people who make them and the people who wear them. As we scale globally, wholesale remains one of our biggest growth engines. That’s where you come in.

You’ll lead our B2B sales strategy, manage key markets and partners and guide our wholesale team to the next level. From trade fairs to agent networks, from key accounts to sales analytics, you connect the dots, raise the bar and make sure we don’t just grow, but grow well. 

Strategic where it matters. Hands-on where it counts.
