About You:

• Technical Excellence: Highly proficient in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and creating detailed factory workbooks.
• Market Insight: A strong understanding of the premium British high street and the modern contemporary luxury landscape.
About us:
Founded in 1970, Jigsaw was the first premium fashion brand on the high street. Since then, the company has expanded worldwide to work with the finest mills, cutting edge photographers, up-and-coming models and renowned architects. But the search for the best in the industry never stops. As our journey continues, we're looking for passionate and talented people to learn about Style & Truth: a set of values that sets us apart from the rest of the high street, a belief that everyone should feel empowered to embrace their own style, be true to themselves, and not slavishly follow the fashion world. This means putting style before trends and truth before hype.
We pride ourselves on our dedicated and dynamic team and we are always looking for talented people to join us. Come and be a part of Jigsaw.
