Job Overview

LeMieux is seeking a skilled Product Development Specialist to join their team. As a key member of the Design team, you will be responsible for managing the fit and technical process of all horse products and accessories.

Your primary focus will be on ensuring the quality and makeup of samples across multiple product areas, as well as overseeing all aspects of garment fit, testing, and wearer trials.

You will work closely with overseas factories to ensure that all products meet the required standards, and will be responsible for creating clear technical packs, including size specs and construction details.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of garment fit, technical construction, and make-up, as well as experience working with overseas factories.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Assisting in the creation of spec sheets to ensure all technical attributes are correct and well communicated.
  • Leading fit sessions for all relevant products, relaying fit comments and amendments to suppliers, and maintaining accurate fit records.
  • Working with Design to create clear technical packs, including size specs and construction details.
  • Updating size specs, writing up and recording comments and data.
  • Monitoring the sampling process and updating the critical path.
  • Test report creation and approvals.
  • Maintaining a physical sample library and storage.
  • Keeping historic logs and accurate updates of samples status.
  • Checking of incoming samples for measurement and design discrepancies.
  • Assisting in Quality Control, checking production/received stock for sizing and fabric consistency, and working with the Returns department to ensure product improvement.
  • Daily liaison with overseas suppliers to ensure deadlines are met and the critical path stays up to date.

Requirements:

  • Proven industry experience in a similar role is essential, preferably in sports/equestrian wear product development.
  • Product/Garment Technologist Qualification or equivalent industry experience.
  • Comprehensive understanding of garment fit, technical construction, and make-up, and confident in grading and sizing.
  • Knowledge of pattern cutting, construction, and manufacturing techniques.
  • Experience working with overseas factories.
  • The ability to follow and manage their time according to the critical path.
  • CAD skills and experience using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop would be an advantage.
  • Solid working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications, particularly Word and Excel.
  • A strong communicator with excellent organisation skills.
  • Flexible attitude to work, with the ability to adjust to the constantly changing needs of the business.
  • Applicant must be able to take initiative in any given role and be willing to assist where necessary.
  • The ability to work alone, on one's own initiative, as well as within a team and in a fast-paced environment.
  • An equestrian background is not essential but would be an advantage, being passionate about product is essential.

Benefits:

  • Company pension
  • Free on-site parking
  • Casual attire
  • Generous holiday allowance
