Balenciaga Sales & Client Advisor

Sales Assistant Position

Founded by the Spaniard Cristóbal Balenciaga in 1917 and established in Paris in 1937, the Balenciaga Maison has defined modern couture with its numerous innovations in form and technique. Today it continues to carry forward the Maison's vision through avant-garde collections that include women's and men's prêt-à-porter, accessories, and objets d'art. The brand's unprecedented interactions with the expanding digital world, material development, and today's social responsibilities keep it at the forefront of modernity. In 2021, Balenciaga's 50th Couture collection—the first since the founder retired in 1968—reintroduces a standard of innovative elegance. From October 2015 to July 2025, Demna has signed the women's and men's collections as Artistic Director. In July 2025, Pierpaolo Piccioli was named Creative Director of Balenciaga.
