About us
La Coqueta is a Spanish-inspired, British-based children's wear brand, known for quality materials and craftsmanship. Founded in Hampstead in 2013 by Celia Muñoz, we've grown into a globally recognised brand with a loyal following, and have featured in The Sunday Times, Vogue, Grazia, Hello!, You Magazine, Red Magazine and Smallish Magazine. Our flagship store is in Notting Hill, with a concession in Selfridges and stockists worldwide, plus a growing presence in the US. We're proud of our Spanish heritage and our partnerships with small artisans across Spain, and as we expand internationally we're evolving into a modern luxury lifestyle brand for all ages, lifestyles and nationalities.
The role
You'll run fit sessions, set grading and measurement standards, and make the construction calls that keep quality consistent across the range. You'll also own compliance and safety testing end to end, and support the sourcing, sampling and tech pack admin that keeps everything on critical path. This is a new, permanent, hybrid role, built for someone who's equally comfortable at a fit session and a spreadsheet.

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.
