Retail Operations Coordinator

Retail Operations Coordinator - West

Sézane · West Hollywood, United States · Full-time · Posted 2026-11-06

Workplace: on_site

Department: US

Description

Twenty years ago, Les Composantes began with a selection of vintage pieces, born from a desire for creative independence and an eye for detail. That instinct and an appreciation for design that endures have shaped everything that followed.

From there, Sézane was born in Paris in 2013. Since then, la famille has continued to grow, with Octobre Éditions for men, Les Composantes reimagined as a home and lifestyle destination, and Petit Sézane for children.

Our story has unfolded like life itself: through instinct, spontaneity, and learning. We developed a singular approach to detail, service, and connection. A way of imagining a Parisian wardrobe for real life, first online and later through our Appartements. From day one, we have been guided by a commitment to making beautiful design accessible, without ever compromising on quality.

To continue to co-construct the next chapter and beyond, we are looking for creative, organized and agile talents, who share our passion to perpetually improve all that can be.

Care to imagine what comes next with us? We can’t wait to hear from you!
