Description

Footwear Designer | Manchester | Circa £45,000 | Hybrid, Flexible Working

This isn't just a job - it's a place where people stay.

A people-first brand built on creativity, and trust. This is a space for designers who've been burnt by bad industry experiences and are looking for something real - a supportive culture, healthy pace, and the freedom to focus and thrive.
They're continuing to build something special here: a brand that listens, that grows together, and that's still got so much potential, even though they're already one of THE biggest retailers in the UK.

What You'll Be Doing

We're looking for a Footwear Designer; bringing energy, originality, and care to everything you create. You'll work closely with other designers and category managers to deliver seasonally relevant footwear concepts - that are innovative, functional, and beautifully considered.

  • Translate consumer insights, market trends, and creative vision into design concepts

  • Set the seasonal workload and ensure delivery against timelines

  • Build designs with a solid understanding of footwear construction, costing, and materials

  • Work fluidly across projects and categories, from early ideation to final design packs

  • Contribute to market research, trend reports, and product storytelling

  • Develop your 3D design and Adobe Suite skills in a real-world environment

  • Participate in off-sites and creative events, growing your confidence and voice as a designer

  • Collaborate across product, merchandising, development and marketing teams

About You

  • 4+ years of experience in footwear

  • Digitally fluent: confident in Adobe Suite; 3D skills a big plus or eager to learn

  • Strong visual storytelling and communication skills

  • Collaborative and respectful - someone who contributes to a calm, supportive team energy

  • Deep interest in construction, manufacturing, materials, and sustainability

  • Naturally organised - able to manage multiple timelines and deadlines

Why You'll Love It Here

  • Flexible, hybrid working - built on trust, not micromanagement

  • You'll have space to focus, crack on and deliver - and be recognised for it

  • A truly values-led company culture: inclusive, collaborative, and forward-thinking

  • Be part of the brand's growth story - and make your mark early on

Sound like your kind of place? We'd love to hear from you.
