Required:

  • Proven experience in clothing design and garment production
  • Strong understanding of the end-to-end production process, from concept to delivery
  • A genuine feel for streetwear, music culture, and the aesthetics of the dance music world
  • Social media savvy — you understand what performs and how to build hype around a drop
  • Experience working with content teams or creating marketing assets yourself
  • Highly organised, self-sufficient, and comfortable working in a small, fast-paced team
  • Able to work on a hybrid basis

Beneficial:
