Miscellaneous Job Descriptions — Letter P

Miscellaneous fashion industry job descriptions beginning with P

Five miscellaneous job descriptions begin with the letter P, spanning the camera, the corner office and the product range. The Photographer creates the images clothing is sold with; the President leads the company itself; Product Management and the Product Manager for Sportswear own what gets made and how it performs; and the Project Manager delivers the industry's change — launches, openings and systems — on schedule.

P — Miscellaneous Roles

Photographer — Fashion — The image-maker behind editorial, catalogue and online clothing photography — directing the set and delivering the pictures garments are sold by.

President — Fashion Industry — The senior officer leading a fashion company or division, setting its direction and answering for its performance to owners and board.

Product Management — Clothing — The function managing a clothing line's whole life, from first concept and costing through production to final sales review.

Product Manager — Sportswear — The manager of sportswear ranges, balancing performance requirements, materials, costing and seasonal delivery dates.

Project Manager — Fashion — The planner who carries defined fashion projects — launches, store openings, new systems — from brief to delivered result.

Image, Leadership and Product

The P letter divides into three kinds of responsibility. The Photographer is responsible for representation: how the clothing appears to everyone who will never touch it before buying. The President is responsible for direction: which markets, products and investments the company commits to. The product and project managers are responsible for delivery: the range that reaches stores on the planned date at the planned cost, and the projects that change how the company works. Senior fashion careers often pass through two of these three kinds, and the descriptions show where each one leads.

How to Use This Letter

Read the Photographer description for studio, editorial and e-commerce image work; the President description for the top leadership tier of a fashion business; Product Management for owning a clothing line end to end, with the Sportswear description for its performance-clothing specialism; and the Project Manager description for delivering change itself. One further P page sits outside the job descriptions: Princess of Fashion, linked below with the wider resources, is an Apparel Search feature rather than a role. The alphabet bar above reaches every letter of this category.

Common Questions

Which miscellaneous job descriptions begin with P?

Five: Photographer (Fashion), President (Fashion Industry), Product Management (Clothing), Product Manager (Sportswear) and Project Manager (Fashion).

What is the difference between product management and a product manager?

Product management names the function — owning a product line's life from concept to sales review. A product manager is the person who holds that ownership for a line or category, as the Sportswear description shows in its specialist field.

Is the President description about a specific company?

No. It describes the role generically across the fashion industry: the duties, authority and accountability of a company or division president, whichever business employs one.
