Enderby, Head Office
We are looking for a trend-driven experienced Assistant/Junior garment and accessories designer, looking to push the menswear design here at Next.
Portfolios must be added to the application in order to be considered.
Let’s talk trend-led design… When it comes to UK retail, it’s hard to find a company with a bigger focus on quality within design. We sell thousands of items an hour and our repeat customer base comes back to us time and time again for our renowned trend-led, quality products. For anyone in the design field - this is the place to learn, grow, and thrive.
The role
Researching the latest trends relevant to various customer profiles, then communicating this information to your team and senior managers is a key part of this role. We would ask you to produce creative designs that tastefully represent and reflect the latest trends into the Next customer base. Travel is also a big part of this role as well as collaboration across the team.
About you
We would love you to have previous experience working within garment and/or accessories design and a love of menswear- within a UK brand or high street retailer. Previous experience working on multi-product would be desirable but not essential. A great taste level and a real passion for the latest trends and how to translate these to your designs, whilst having an enthusiastic attitude and being a team player.
The team
You would be joining an amazing team whose enthusiasm for trend, design, and elevation is the main focus. A wealth of experience across menswear design will be at your fingertips here along with a really great team bond. Working within the design studio, you will be inspired daily.
Your benefits
We’ll discuss more of what you’ll get when you work for Next at the interview, but here’s an overview of what you can expect:
* Profit–related bonus
* 25 days holiday and the opportunity to buy more
* Contributions into a pension scheme
* Sharesave scheme, which allows you to invest in Next and claim your share of our success
* On-site nursery (salary sacrifice scheme) in Leicester
