Job description

We're a global brand made up of a very diverse mix of talented people in a huge variety of roles. Our products are designed in house and made by a small number of suppliers and artisans around the world to sustainable standards.

We are a brand embarking on a very exciting plan and we are seeking new members of the team who want to contribute to this.

THE ROLE

As a Garment Technologist at AllSaints you will act as the bridge between a creative vision and a physical masterpiece. You will take total technical ownership of our dual-gender categories, ensuring every piece—from a structured blazer to technical outerwear—meets our exacting standards of quality and fit.

This is a high-visibility role that requires a 'product-first' mindset. You’ll be the glue between our internal Design, Buying, and Pattern Room teams, as well as our global external vendors. If you are obsessed with the 'how' of garment construction and thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment, this is your next move.

You should come from a multi-product background with a high level of experience with outerwear and tailoring across both genders, and have a passion for all things technical when it comes to creating good quality garments.

• Collaborate with the technical team to produce high quality and uniformed garments across all categories to drive a reduction in faulty returns
• Manage risk assessment of product in close collaboration with the product development and production teams, as well as external vendors
• Monitor and advise on the safe operating standards essential in manufacturing
• Ensure digital technology is embraced (3D fittings, VC fit meetings)

• Multi product experience is important
• A natural flair when it comes to garment construction, pattern amendments and production requirements
• Experienced in working within a commercial and design led environment
• Solid understanding of garment grading and vertical retailing
