  • Doing some light cleaning at the end of the day to keep the studio space clean and tidy.
  • Assisting customers who arrive to pick up orders in person.
  • In-person customer service.
  • Liaising with our Office Manager on customer and order queries.

Requirements:

  • Organised and efficient
  • Self-motivated
  • Able to undertake quite physically demanding work including lifting and moving heavy rolls and standing for long periods while cutting orders.
  • Knowledge of fabric and sewing a huge bonus

What we can offer you

  • Friendly working environment
  • 20% staff discount on fabrics and haberdashery
  • Bi-annual team sewing day
