This position sits at the heart of a small, highly collaborative head office team, offering full ownership of the end-to-end design process across seasonal ready-to-wear, capsule collections, accessories and lifestyle products. From shaping creative direction and trend-led concepts through to fabric selection, fittings and production follow-up, this is a 360° role for a designer who thrives on autonomy, accountability and craftsmanship.
Working closely with founders, creative leadership and cross-functional teams, the role blends creativity with commercial insight, ensuring collections are beautifully designed, market-relevant and delivered on time.
