Love the detail behind beautiful garments? This one’s for you.

Our client creates bespoke and ready-to-wear uniforms for luxury hotels, resorts and restaurants around the world. They’re looking for a highly organised Sampling Assistant to make sure every sample is right first time and ready when it matters.

What you’ll be doing
You’ll report to the Sampling Manager and work closely with designers, product developers and factories. You’ll be:

Raising sample purchase orders in Zedonk and preparing complete factory packs with tech packs and digital patterns

Ordering special cloth and trims, and checking that every component is in place, from linings and fusing to zips and buttons

Keeping the sample tracker up to date and chasing factories so deadlines are met

Getting garments ready for fittings, internal reviews and client presentations

Keeping the showroom beautifully presented, including seasonal mannequin refreshes

Photographing and tracking samples sent to clients and brand ambassadors, and managing returns

Helping with model fittings, client care guides, measuring sessions and installations

What you’ll need

Excellent organisation and a sharp eye for detail, so nothing leaves without everything it needs

A forward-planning approach and the persistence to follow up until it’s done

Confidence with Zedonk, spreadsheets and trackers (sample or PO experience is a bonus)

Clear, confident communication with factories, suppliers and colleagues

A real interest in garments, construction, fabrics and trims

An eye for presentation

Why join?
You’ll be at the heart of the sampling process for a growing international brand, gaining hands-on experience from factory brief to client presentation. It’s a brilliant foundation for a career in product or production.
