The ideal candidate should have strong technical knowledge of garment construction, stitching, measurements, finishing, fabric quality, and apparel production processes, along with the ability to independently identify and resolve complex quality-related issues.
Key Responsibilities
- Quality Standards & Inspection: Review product specifications, tech packs, measurement charts, construction details, approved samples, and quality requirements before and during production.

- Defect Identification & Resolution: Identify major and recurring quality defects, analyse their root causes, and recommend practical corrective and preventive actions.
- Team Supervision: Supervise junior quality control staff and ensure that inspections are carried out accurately and consistently.
- Training & Development: Train junior team members on garment quality standards, measurement procedures, defect identification, inspection methods, and basic troubleshooting.
- Technical Problem-Solving: Resolve minor production and quality issues independently and escalate major technical or production concerns with clear recommendations.
- Measurement & Fit Checks: Verify garment measurements, tolerances, fit-related details, stitching quality, seam construction, trims, labels, and finishing against approved specifications.
- Fabric & Material Quality: Identify fabric defects, shade variations, print or embroidery inconsistencies, shrinkage concerns, and other material-related issues that may affect the finished product.
- Corrective Action Follow-Up: Coordinate with production, sampling, merchandising, and other relevant teams to ensure identified defects are corrected and do not recur.
- Quality Documentation: Maintain inspection records, defect reports, measurement checklists, and quality-related documentation, and communicate recurring issues to the concerned teams.
- Final Quality Approval: Verify that finished garments meet the required quality standards before packing, dispatch, or handover.
- Process Improvement: Suggest improvements in production methods, inspection procedures, and quality checkpoints to reduce rejection rates, rework, wastage, and production delays.

- 2-3 years of experience in apparel quality control, garment production, or a similar role preferred.
- Robust knowledge of garment construction, stitching techniques, fabric behaviour, garment measurements, and finishing standards.
- Ability to read and interpret tech packs,

- Familiarity with woven and knitted garments, depending on the product category.
- Experience handling complex garments, prints, embroidery, trims, or specialised construction details.
- Knowledge of quality control checklists, AQL-based inspection, and standard garment testing procedures is an advantage.
What We Are Looking For
