About Acton

At Acton, we don’t just make clothes; we bring stories to life. We are a kidswear brand built on a foundation of original characters and enchanting narratives. We’re looking for a visionary Fashion Designer who can take our existing lore and transform it into a collection that captures the imagination of children and the trust of parents.

The Role

We aren't looking for someone to just “sketch a shirt.” We need a creative powerhouse who can translate the DNA of our stories into high-quality, functional, and magical garments. You will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of the garment—from the first character-inspired mood board to the final production-ready tech pack.

What You’ll Do
  • Narrative Translation: Deep-dive into our existing stories and characters to design apparel that feels like an extension of the Acton world.
  • End-to-End Design: Conceptualise seasonal collections, including sketching (CAD), color palette selection, and textile print development.
  • Technical Excellence: Create comprehensive, factory-ready tech packs (including BOM, graded specs, and construction details).
  • Sourcing & Sustainability: Select fabrics that are kid-friendly, durable, and aligned with our brand’s ethos.
  • Sampling & Fit: Oversee the sampling process, conducting fit sessions to ensure our clothes are "play-proof" and comfortable.
Who You Are
  • A Technical Artist: You have a degree in Fashion Design and are a wizard in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator/Photoshop).
  • Kidswear Expert: You understand the nuances of children’s sizing, safety regulations (like drawstring and button standards), and the importance of soft-on-skin fabrics.
  • Detail Obsessed: You know that a Tech Pack is the "Bible" of a garment and take pride in its precision.
  • Storyteller at Heart: You’re excited by the idea of making a child feel like they’ve stepped right into their favourite book.
How to Apply

Please send your portfolio, a brief cover letter telling us your favourite childhood story, and your resume to

Portfolios that showcase both creative sketches and technical tech packs will be prioritised.

Acton is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate magic, diversity, and the curiosity of childhood.
