Job Description & How to Apply Below
My client believes life’s too short for boring socks.
They are a team of colour-loving, texture-obsessed, comfort-driven creators on a mission to make the world’s best socks — the kind that make people smile when they put them on in the morning.
If you dream in patterns, geek out over yarns, and can spot a Pantone chip from 10 feet away, we want you on our team.
What You’ll Do
You’ll be our in-house textile wizard — designing socks that look amazing, feel incredible, and tell a story with every step.
Your day-to-day might include:
* Sketching and developing bold, beautiful, or downright quirky knit patterns.
* Building colour palettes that make people say “wow.”
* Turning creative concepts into production-ready tech packs that factories can actually knit.
* Keeping one eye on fashion and lifestyle trends — and another on what’s next.
* Collaborating with designers, product developers, and suppliers to make sure your ideas come to life exactly as you imagined.
* Pushing the boundaries of what socks can be — in design, function, and sustainability.
What You Bring
* A degree in Textile Design, Fashion, Knitwear, or something equally creative.
* 2+ years’ experience designing textiles — bonus points if you’ve worked with knits, hosiery, or performance wear.
* Strong command of Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and (ideally) textile CAD software
* Solid understanding of knitting techniques, yarns, and colour theory.
* A killer eye for trends and a unique design voice.
* The ability to juggle multiple projects and meet deadlines without losing your sparkle.
Who You Are
* You’re a creative thinker who isn’t afraid to take risks.
* You’re obsessed with detail (because the toe seam matters).
* You love colour, pattern, and good vibes.
* You thrive in a collaborative, fast-moving environment.
* You believe great design can make people happy — even if it’s “just socks.”
What You’ll Get
* Competitive salary based on experience.
* A supportive team that loves brainstorming, coffee, and the occasional sock pun.
* Access to top-notch design tools and trend resources.
