Know your Nylons from your Nubucks, and your archive drops from this season's must-haves? We want to hear from you.
Recruiting for a group behind a portfolio of globally recognised sport and streetwear brands, they are on the hunt for an Apparel Designer to join the in-house team, working across dedicated SMU lines, inline collections, and special projects.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
