Our Collingwood studio is where ideas take shape, colours are crafted, and collections come to life.

What began as a small, family-run business has grown into an international design brand with showrooms across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, India, and the Middle East.

Our legacy is built on creativity, craftsmanship, and an enduring passion for textiles values that continue to guide everything we do today.

- Present collection concepts, trends and product direction to internal stakeholders and customers.
- Support product presentations and range launches.
- Work collaboratively across Design, Product Development, Marketing, Planning, Sales and other teams to bring collections successfully to market.

- Qualifications in Textile Design, Product Design, or another relevant design discipline.
- Demonstrated experience in a Designer, Product Designer or similar product development role, ideally within textiles in the homewares category with a minimum of 3 years’ experience working in the industry.

- The ability to translate trends and commercial insights into relevant, cohesive product collections.
- Experience developing ranges across multiple product categories.
- Strong knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite, including Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign.
- Excellent attention to detail and organisational skills.
- Strong verbal, written and presentation skills.
- The ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a creative, productive environment.
- A collaborative, flexible and solutions-focused approach.

What's on offer:

- A creative role working across homewares (predominantly textiles).

- Exposure to both Australian and international markets, suppliers and design influences.
- A collaborative, supportive and experienced product & Design team.
