Job description

The Jonsson brand goes beyond workwear. We are obsessed with exceptional quality, elevated details and high-performance durability, which is evident in everything we create, from our flattering dresses to our technical ranges. It's all made to withstand the test of time.

To bring our commitment to peak performance and enduring style to life, our Product Team seeks a collaborative, curious and established Garment Designer to continue pioneering the workwear industry with us. Your thorough understanding of the product life cycle is critical. From garment design to distribution, we oversee every step of our supply chain, which is key in upholding our high standards of quality and service excellence.

This role demands more than your technical skills as a designer. Your creative expertise and intrinsic eye for style should be demonstrated in both your portfolio and how you show up every day. Can you piece together a cohesive, stylish look and represent the Jonsson Workwear brand in an inspiring way? We'd love to see how you live our brand.

As our custodian for our garment innovation, you will be required to:

• Show the drive, grit and dynamism needed to innovate and create in our fast-paced environment.
• Apply your meticulous attention to detail, infinite imagination and knack for garment functionality in the development of our functional and reliable workwear.
• Take ownership of each project with pride, using your ingenuity to originate practical, reliable staples that embody the Jonsson Workwear brand.
• Possess our shared customer-centric obsession to best serve those we outfit.
• Exhibit the confidence needed to collaborate and present your creative ideas with all levels of the business.
• Display the genuine curiosity to dig deeper, asking the end-users the right questions to ensure the garments we create fulfil their intended function effectively.
• Keep asking What's Next? Not only to pioneer new garment innovations, but to elevate and evolve our existing ranges too.
  
  

Are you eager to create with passion, constantly improving our existing ranges and bringing your forward-thinking new ideas to the table? We would love to meet you.

In line with Jonsson Workwear's commitment to employment equity, applications from candidates from designated groups, as well as candidates with disabilities, are encouraged.
