• Present seasonal collections to both internal stakeholders and key retail partners, incorporating feedback to refine and evolve the ranges.
• Work cross-functionally with sales, buying, merchandising, and production teams to ensure collections are commercially viable and margin-aware.
• Stay ahead of competitor activity and consumer trends to inform both creative direction and market positioning.
• Guide and mentor junior members of the design team, supporting their development and workflow.
• Maintain ownership of the critical path to ensure samples and finalised designs are delivered on schedule.

The Candidate

• Highly driven and committed, with a flexible attitude toward deadlines and team needs.
• Exceptional eye for design detail, with a sharp sense of what’s commercially relevant.
• Clear and confident communicator, both visually and verbally, with strong presentation skills.
• Naturally collaborative and skilled at building productive working relationships across departments.
• Deep understanding of high street trends, social media influence, and seasonal fashion direction.
• Combines creative flair with commercial understanding, able to translate inspiration into salable product.
• Knowledgeable in garment construction, fitting, and manufacturing processes.
• Awareness of sustainable design practices and ability to integrate them into workflow.
