Turner Newmeir-Drury

Product Developer
About

I am currently a Product Developer at Burberry working within both the Runway and Mainline areas of the business. Having started as an assistant in July 2022, I have worked quickly towards a promotion after proving myself during the tail end of Riccardo Tischi’s tenure, and the creative changeover into Daniel Lee’s Burberry. I have learnt much about the fundamentals of high-end luxury product development within this time. Throughout my time at Burberry I have learnt; how to manage high pressure environments, deliver collections with tight deadlines which align with critical paths & budget, intricate garment construction & fitting, accurate PLM data administration, professional & personal communication with vendors globally, how to manage in house relations with Design & the cross functional teams and how to keep team morale & enthusiasm at a high level.
