Momso is a female-led professional sewing and textiles studio based in South London.
We are looking for two highly accomplished Senior Tailors / Sample Machinists to join our busy studio on a freelance, self-employed basis.

You'll handle varied work, including bridalwear, men's and women's tailoring, alterations, samples, prototyping, and small-batch production.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You must be able to assess a garment or product, determine method, and complete it to a high professional standard without ongoing instruction. Essential requirements include:
- Advanced skills in garment construction, tailoring, bridalwear, and finishing
- Confident use of industrial machines
- Minimum seven years' paid professional experience in a commercial environment
- Home sewing alone is not sufficient
Shortlisted applicants will complete a practical sewing assessment.
Initial one-month period, around 15 hours per week, is paid freelance work with the rate disclosed and discussed at interview. Following a successful first month, hours are expected to increase to around 30 per week, subject to workload and agreement, with the rate reviewed.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK, and be permitted to undertake self-employed freelance work. Ideally based in South London or able to travel easily to our studio.
Quite simply, we need someone who can really sew. If you're that person, we'd love to hear from you.
