An opportunity has arisen within their design team for a passionate and imaginative Graphic Artist with a textile background to step into a key role and join their creative team.
As a creative powerhouse, you’ll utilise your graphic design expertise across print and textile design, while also supporting the sales and marketing teams with market knowledge and trend insights and assisting in photoshoots.

We’re looking for an industry-qualified graphic designer, ideally with a background or qualification in textile print design, and a strong creative flair paired with a passion for textile design and illustration. You’ll have several years of industry experience and be highly skilled in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and the Adobe Creative Suite—ideally with CAD expertise as well. As part of an energetic and highly motivated team, you’ll need to bring drive, agility, and an openness to change. Your adaptability and ability to contribute across a variety of projects will be key in this dynamic environment. On a personal level, you’re creative, positive, and self-driven, with a genuine interest in textiles and apparel.
An exciting opportunity with growth opportunities to develop your skills and explore new avenues in your career. If you’re ready to make your mark and thrive in a vibrant team atmosphere, we’d love to see what you can create!
