n Key Responsibilities
n Design & Creative Development
n • Independently conceptualise styles and capsule directions suited to ZAVI's markets — Dubai, Riyadh, & the UK — accounting for silhouette, chic but modest sensibility, for the mature audience, climate, and price architecture
n • Initiate market and trend research and translate findings into cohesive design directions
n • Develop mood boards, sketches, and fabric concepts as fully formed proposals — not loose references
n • Bring ideas to the Lead for alignment, then own execution completely from that point
n • Maintain and evolve ZAVI's design language: minimalist, seasonless, contemporary, conscious
n Technical Design
n • Produce accurate tech packs with full construction details, graded measurements, and material specifications
n • Create detailed flat sketches in Adobe Illustrator
n • Manage all revision rounds through to final approved spec

n What We're Looking For
n • 7 - 10 years of experience in fashion design with end-to-end production involvement
n • A portfolio that demonstrates design authorship and commercial range — not just execution

n • Proficiency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop; working knowledge of CLO 3D or similar is a plus
n • Strong technical understanding of garment construction and natural/sustainable fabrics
n • Comfortable and credible in a factory environment — can hold a conversation, spot a problem, and resolve it

n • Direct access to founders and meaningful influence on product direction
n • Exposure across multiple markets — GCC and beyond
n • A small, high-trust team where your contribution is visible and recognised
