  I have accumulated 13 years of experience in the textile industry following my graduation with a degree in Textile Engineering. My professional journey began at Yesim Textile, where I served as a Production Fabric Planner. During this tenure, I acquired an in-depth understanding of jersey fabric production processes. Subsequently, I transitioned to the role of a Buyer at Defacto, a position that exposed me to the world of retail. I honed my skills in analyzing sales performances, developing range plans, negotiating prices with suppliers, and keeping a pulse on industry trends. In 2015, I joined Koton as a Buying Manager. During the initial three years, I oversaw the Middle East Special Collection, collaborating closely with the Landmark Group. My responsibilities included monthly visits to Dubai for market analysis and shopping, as well as presenting collections and securing orders every two months. Following this period, I assumed the role of Head Buyer for the main collection, overseeing the Women's Woven category across Turkey, UAE, and colder regions. I led a team of 20 professionals, including buyers and designers, reporting directly to both the Chief Merchandising Officer and the company's owner. My role encompassed managing collection timelines, coordinating with the sourcing team to plan delivery schedules, and making critical decisions regarding production continuation or cancellation based on delivery and quality considerations. In close collaboration with the planning team, I set sales targets and devised strategic plans through weekly meetings. I organized regular meetings with my buying and design teams to ensure adherence to collection deadlines. My responsibilities extended to selecting appropriate fabrics from the Far East, considering sales performance and trend support, and negotiating prices directly with suppliers. My role also entailed extensive international travel to the UK, Barcelona, UAE, Seoul, India, and Russia, where I conducted market analyses and made impactful purchasing decisions. Furthermore, I worked closely with the Visual Merchandising team to determine effective in-store presentation strategies for our collections, providing guidance and direction. I consider myself a proficient team leader who excels at motivating team members. My approach is practical and solution-oriented, and I thrive in dynamic work environments. While I can remain composed under pressure, I value a peaceful and balanced work atmosphere. I am characterized by my strong work ethic, self-discipline, self-motivation, and a positive outlook.
