Work with us...

We’re looking for a Mid-Level Graphic Designer to join us on
a full-time basis. They must have a strong digital design focus to elevate how
our brand shows up online as well solid experience in packaging design, visual
identity and brand systems. Textile design experience will also be highly
regarded. You’ll plan and deliver on-brand creative across web, email and
social, translating campaign ideas into high-performing assets that feel
cohesive from homepage to checkout.

Being proactive is your superpower. You love the creative
rush of a new campaign just as much as the calm satisfaction of tidy files,
clear specs and everything running to schedule. Switching gears is second
nature (creative hat on… now scheduling… now documentation, easy). You’re the
person who keeps momentum high and chaos low, without losing the magic.

You live and breathe digital design. You think in modules
and systems, craft thumb-stopping social, elegant web assets and
conversion-minded EDMs, and you’re happiest when a campaign looks seamless from
homepage to checkout. Motion doesn’t scare you, and you enjoy partnering with
eComm to make every pixel work harder.

Collaboration is where you shine. You build easy rapport
with Product/Design, Production, eComm, Content Creators and our suppliers, you
communicate clearly, manage expectations and keep projects moving. You’re a
self-starter, steady under pressure, and your file hygiene and version control
are the stuff of studio legends.

makes your brain fizz with ideas come make beautiful work with us.

We’re on the lookout for a Mid-Level Fashion Designer to join our team and help shape the future of Sage x Clare’s apparel, accessories and lifestyle collections. From soft knits and printed linens to jewellery, footwear, bags and beyond, you’ll bring our handcrafted, joy-filled aesthetic to life across every category.

Reporting to our Production and Design Manager, you’ll collaborate with our in-house dream team and global makers to turn creative sparks into thoughtful, well-crafted trend-forward designs that capture the spirit of Sage x Clare. You’ll know your way around sustainable materials, have a solid grasp of construction and fit, and always keep one eye on what’s next in the design world.

If you’re the kind of designer who loves detail as much as big ideas, the type who can flip between creative chaos and calendar mode without missing a beat, we want to meet you. Bring your curiosity, energy and eye for detail, and let’s make something beautiful together.
