Full Job Description
WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

You will report to the NikeSKIMS Senior Director of Product & Merchandising and partner closely with fellow Product Line Managers, Merchants, Design, Product Development and other key stakeholders across both the Nike and SKIMS organizations. Beyond your core team, you will collaborate with Materials/Trims team, Brand, Consumer Insights, Planning, Sourcing, and Finance to bring product to life - acting as a critical connector between two iconic brands with a shared ambition: redefining what women's activewear can be.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We're looking for a Senior Product Line Manager to help shape the future of the NikeSKIMS business. This individual has a proven ability to lead product creation teams in building elevated product lines across the seasonal calendar - collections that fuse Nike's performance authority with SKIMS' mastery of fit, form, and feel.

In this fast-paced and highly visible role, you'll thrive in ambiguity, navigate competing priorities, and embrace the creative tension that comes with building something new between two powerhouse brands. Above all, you will be consumer-obsessed - someone who deeply understands the NikeSKIMS consumer and translates her needs, desires, and cultural cues into product she can't live without.

The ideal candidate will establish and cultivate relationships across the broader NikeSKIMS organization, while recognizing cultural, competitive, and consumer trends shaping women's activewear and lifestyle. You will leverage consumer and marketplace insights and translate them into product narratives that resonate emotionally and drive commercial impact. You will lead cross-functionally to deliver distinctive, innovative, and elevated product in the industry, while curating a product line that feels unmistakably NikeSKIMS: strong, sexy, and made for her.

  • Bachelor's degree in business, Marketing, Retail Merchandising, or related field. Will accept any suitable combination of education, experience, and training
  • A minimum of 3 years directly relevant work experience
  • Additional experience in product creation with deep understanding of the product creation process
  • Demonstrated fluency in the NikeSKIMS consumer - her lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, fit expectations, and how she shops across performance and lifestyle
  • Creativity and passion for product, fashion, trend, color, fit, and style
  • Excellent presentation and interpersonal communication skills
  • Demonstrated knowledge of the women's activewear marketplace, alongside a strong pulse on culture and fashion
  • Demonstrated leadership capabilities, including the ability to motivate, influence, negotiate, and impact the triad across two brand organizations
  • Strong business management experience, analytical proficiency, and understanding of retail math, with experience in Excel/Keynote/Miro/MMX
  • Ability to travel domestically and internationally up to 30%


WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

You will work daily with Design, Development, Brand, Consumer Insights, and Merchandising teams to build seasonal product lines. You will lead the triad - keeping projects on pace, communicating with clarity across Nike and SKIMS partners.

You will collaborate to develop line plans, shape assortment architecture, and drive future product strategies. You'll partner with Consumer Insights to bring her voice into every gate of the product creation process - from brief to buy - and champion the fit, feel, and emotional resonance that make NikeSKIMS unlike anything else in her closet.

Weekly, you will drive on-calendar delivery across product briefs, design reviews, merchandising plans, and marketplace distribution - translating cultural moments, consumer feedback, and marketplace signals into product decisions. You will keep downstream partners aware and accountable, ensuring the collection shows up in-market with intention, cohesion, and impact.

NikeSKIMS is a growth business built for team members who want to shape what's next. We offer a generous total rewards package, a dynamic and collaborative work environment, a diverse and inclusive culture, and an electric atmosphere for professional development.
