I am Jan Karsten. I have been with Popken Fashion Group since the end of 2018 and I am responsible for the procurement controlling. We are constantly exchanging information with our colleagues from creative procurement as well as product management, where our products are taking shape - calculating specified cost limits, preparing the overall planning of our line, analyzing products and product groups as well as reviewing the performance of our lines. The exchange with people who, in part, have a very different look at numbers, as well as the fast moving fashion business are the reason why there is never a dull moment.

I am Lena Fahlbusch and I have been working for Popken Fashion Group since 2014. After finishing my work-study program I was taken on in the Online-Marketing department and was responsible for social media and looking after influencers.

Working in campaign management, I am responsible for ensuring that the branding strategy of Ulla Popken is adhered to across the full range of media channels; i. e. our stores, the catalog, our landing page as well as the online marketing channels.

I am Ute Vielitz and I have been working with Popken Fashion Group as their PR Specialist since 2019. In this position, I am responsible for raising even more awareness of our brands in the public eye. I prepare and send out press releases, organize press events, cultivate our relationships with editors and journalists and answer all their questions. Furthermore, in collaboration with our editors I plan activities for our print and online divisions and I am part of our editorial shootings where our fashion is being used.

In addition, I also take care of our "internal communication", e.g. the management report and press reviews. Both are distributed to our employees via intranet.

I appreciate working for Popken Fashion Group because of its diversity and the creative freedom, but above all because of the co-operation between the colleagues.
