Job description

YOU WORK FOR WE®

Every day, our close-knit Design team works with passion and creativity to develop stylish collections for our customers. As a Designer, this means constantly thinking ahead, adapting to change, and maintaining a clear overview. It's a dynamic role where no two days are the same.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing our Menswear collection, with a focus on woven products. You will oversee the design process from concept to final product, ensuring that your designs are both creatively inspiring and commercially successful.

You look beyond the product itself. You have a clear vision for styling, presentation, and brand experience, and you understand how your collection contributes to the bigger picture. Working closely with the Buying and Merchandising teams, you will develop collections that align with our customer, pricing strategy, and commercial objectives.

How do you achieve this? You stay up to date with market developments, analyse trends, monitor competitors, and translate your insights into inspiring mood boards and commercially relevant designs. You communicate your ideas clearly to suppliers and fit technicians, ensuring every product is developed with precision and attention to detail.

With your strong sense of fashion, product development, and commercial awareness, you will contribute to collections that are both relevant to our customers and successful in the market.

Where you make impact:

• You have design experience within a fashion retail environment and a strong affinity with menswear and woven product categories.
• You translate trends, market developments, and customer insights into commercial products that resonate with our target audience.
• You have a strong vision for product, styling, and presentation, and understand how these elements contribute to a successful collection.
• You are proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Illustrator, and can accurately prepare technical designs for production.
• You communicate confidently in English, enabling you to collaborate effectively in an international environment.

We are excited to see your work! Please include your portfolio with your application.

We evaluate all applicants based on competencies, experience and equal pay m/f/x.

WE WORK FOR YOU

Together with your product team, you play a key role in driving our growth and innovation every day so it's only fair that we offer something great in return.

• A salary that matches your knowledge, education and experience.
• A travel allowance, 25 vacation days, 8% holiday allowance (which you can choose to receive annually or monthly), a standard 20% shop discount, a pension scheme, and an extensive package of collective insurances.
• Annual "Moments that matter day": an extra day off that you can use on a day that has a special meaning for you.
• The chance to continuously learn and develop, both professionally and personally. Through our WE Academy, for example, we offer a variety of training and development opportunities to help you excel.
• Discount on your sports subscription, participation in bootcamp and/or boxing classes at a reduced rate, and free fruit at our headquarters.
• Team outings, BBQs, events and more!
