This family-owned retail jeweller enterprise has been trading since 1938 and has accomplished an exceptional reputation for friendly, attentive, and professional service. Their expertise covers a vast range of merchandise & jewellery trade services, and they are committed to continually building and improving across all areas in the years to come.
One arena that has always been a commercial strength is their in-house workshop where they offer first-class jewellery repairs alongside a prestige bespoke jewellery design and commission service. An opportunity now exists to join their business to further add personnel strength, craftsmanship depth & breadth to ensure that the influx of repairs and commissions are undertaken in a timely manner.
Job Role:
Working alongside a family member - their Head Goldsmith, this opportunity offers a fantastic platform from where your bench talents can shine & gain recognition. The variety of bench challenges cannot be underestimated, as it includes everyday jewellery repairs & restoration, as well as the opportunity to design, create, and see through to completion one-off commissions.
Increasingly, the business is seeing greater client requests for full redesign & jewellery restoration. With an in-house CAD design facility, client consultations are becoming more frequent. Requests for diamond and precious gemstone jewellery continue to be strong, providing further manufacturing challenges for bench jewellers / goldsmiths.
Requirements:
The applicant should have professional Jewellery Manufacturing training and ideally have proved themselves across several everyday bench disciplines. These include resizing, re-tipping, polishing, rhodium plating, stone replacement, and pearl re-threading. Although this is not an exhaustive list, if there are areas where the client can support your skill learning to be best in class, they would happily undertake this personal training mission.
It is an exciting moment to be expanding their workshop team, and applicants with well-matched bench skills who take pride in delivering perfect pieces time & time again are very much welcomed.
To apply, please send your outline CV along with a short portfolio of designs/pieces you have previously created - the more early insight received, the better.
