We're excited to be partnering with a long-standing and highly successful client, a leading supplier to trend-driven high street retailers, including Inditex brands. They are currently looking to expand their dynamic London-based team with the addition of a talented, motivated, and creative Jersey Designer with strong womenswear experience.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work on fast-paced, volume accounts specifically including Zara where innovation, creativity, and commercial awareness are key.

Main Responsibilities will include:

  • Design and develop trend-led jersey products in line with the company's commercial handwriting.
  • Create forward-thinking yet commercially viable womenswear designs tailored to client briefs.
  • Conduct ongoing research across multiple trend platforms including social media (Instagram, TikTok), blogs, WGSN, and catwalks.
  • Collaborate closely with fabric and print teams to drive seasonal direction and innovation.
  • Communicate effectively with internal teams and external stakeholders.
  • Oversee the development and delivery of all samples, ensuring timelines are met.
  • Liaise with overseas factories on product development and sampling.
  • Maintain high design standards while working to tight deadlines and targets.

Person Specification:

  • Proven experience designing womenswear jersey, ideally with an understanding of the Inditex aesthetic.
  • A strong awareness of the high street market and a keen eye for emerging trends.
  • Proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Illustrator.
  • Willingness and ability to travel internationally as required.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills.
  • A hands-on, enthusiastic approach with a collaborative spirit.
  • A creative thinker who is both innovative and commercially minded, with a fun and inspiring personality.
