About The Founder &Co.

The Founder & Co. is a modern menswear brand crafting essential garments that embody timeless style, functional elegance, and purposeful detail. We don’t chase trends—we refine the everyday. Our mission is to help men dress with clarity, confidence, and intention through a collection that is minimalist, intelligent, and built to last.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Lead Fashion Designer who can shape the visual and functional identity of our collections. You will be responsible for designing refined menswear staples—T-shirts, polos, shirts, trousers—with a singular perfect fit and intelligent variations in fabric weight, feel, flexibility, and subtle style elements. This is not about designing for fashion weeks. It’s about mastering the art of simplicity, purpose, and premium craft.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop menswear collections that align with our occasion-based product strategy (casual, smart casual, business casual).
• Own the full design process from concept to production: moodboards, tech packs, materials, fittings, and refinements.
• Collaborate closely with sourcing and production teams to ensure fabric choice, construction details, and finishes meet our quality standards.
• Innovate within constraints—working with a fixed fit, your design impact comes from thoughtful variations in texture, finish, trims, and styling.
• Translate the brand’s philosophy into garments that serve the customer’s lifestyle—functionally and emotionally.
• Contribute to brand storytelling through design decisions that reflect purpose, not decoration.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in menswear design, ideally with a focus on essentials, luxury basics, or minimalism.
• Strong technical knowledge of fabrics, fit, and garment construction.
• Proficiency in creating tech packs and communicating with manufacturers.
• A sharp eye for balance, restraint, and detail—your signature is subtlety, not statement.
• Experience working with international suppliers and managing production timelines is a plus.
• Ability to work independently, take initiative, and align designs with brand strategy and customer use cases.

Event Designer – Luxury and Fashion - Experiential

London | £40,000 - £0,000 + incentives

We’re partnering with one of the most exciting creative agencies in the game – known for crafting bold, beautiful, and unforgettable brand experiences across luxury fashion, entertainment, beauty, and culture. Think jaw-dropping pop-ups, headline launch moments, and fashion parties that people can’t stop talking about.

With offices in London and New York and a reputation for raising the creative bar every single time, they’re now on the hunt for an Event Designer who’s ready to bring fresh ideas, killer design skills, and big-picture thinking to their growing team.

The Role

You’ll be right in the mix from day one – shaping concepts, creating pitch-winning visuals, and delivering standout projects from first sketch to final reveal. Whether it’s a sleek beauty activation, a high-profile fashion afterparty, or a blockbuster entertainment launch, you’ll know how to make it both visually stunning and strategically sharp.

This is a role for a designer who gets the magic of live experiences and knows how to bring them to life across every detail. You’ll have the freedom to push boundaries and the backing of a seriously talented team to make it happen.

What You’ll Need to Bring

• Around 3+ years in an event design or experiential agency, ideally at mid-weight level.
• A portfolio packed with beautiful, strategic design work that shows your creative thinking and commercial edge.
• Confidence working on budgets from £100K to £1M+
• Solid skills in SketchUp and Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator).
• Strong 2D design and artworking skills – floorplans included.
• Bonus points if you’ve got 3D modelling chops (Vectorworks, Blender, Rhino), CAD, or Cinema 4D in your toolkit.

Who You Are

You’re a creative thinker, a team player, and someone who’s obsessed with the details. You know how to work at pace without dropping the ball, and you’re just as happy collaborating as you are running with a project solo. You inspire those around you, present with confidence, and always push for the best possible outcome.
