Working alongside a collaborative design, marketing, and sales team, you’ll be responsible for:

• Designing and developing women’s ranges from concept to sign-off
• Managing multi-category product design (apparel, swim, accessories, etc.)
• Translating trends into wearable, high-impact collections
• Working closely with sourcing, buying, and marketing to ensure range cohesion
• Conducting market and trend research to inform range direction
• Presenting seasonal stories and product concepts to key stakeholders

You’re a designer who thrives on creative challenge and commercial outcomes. You’ll likely have:

• 4+ years’ experience in ladieswear design, ideally within surf, street, or lifestyle apparel
• Strong understanding of fabrication, fit, and garment construction
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop)
• The ability to manage multiple categories and deadlines
• A collaborative, energetic approach and genuine love of design
• A readiness to relocate to Perth (relocation support provided!)

Why You’ll Love It

This is a rare chance to work with an iconic Australian brand, designing collections that capture the laid-back coastal lifestyle — all while living it.

If you’re looking for a change of scenery and want to take your design career west, this is the opportunity to make it happen.
