John Mangham
It isn't often that I employ someone with the same level of experience as myself so I am incredibly excited to announce the appointment of John Mangham to our Auckland team.
John has enormous experience, having worked in the men’s tailoring industry since 1993 when, after returning from London, he was employed at The Suit Centre - part of the Saks Group.
Since 1997 he has been Regional Boutique Manager for Italian menswear giant Ermenegildo Zegna, where he became a Su Misura* specialist and trainer in 1999.
As well as permanently working in Auckland he has worked extensively in Australia conducting trunk trips and private fittings.
John has been employed at Crane Brothers High Street store as a Senior Sales Associate and will oversee the day-to-day management and sales of our Made in Italy programme.
