2: Industrial Sewing Machinist

About You
We are looking for someone with a passion for sewing, a steady hand, and great attention to detail. Experience operating industrial Coverstitch, Overlock, or Elasticator machines on stretch fabrics is highly valued. Whether you specialise in one of these machines or can operate all three, we want to hear from you! More than anything, we want someone who is reliable, takes pride in their work, and enjoys working as part of a close-knit, supportive factory family.

The Role
In this position, you will be a vital part of our production team, putting the high-quality finishing touches on our premium dancewear garments. We are looking for specialists across different machinery, and we will discuss which machine suits your skills best during your walkthrough.
Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Operating industrial machinery (Coverstitch, Overlock, or Elasticator) to finish stretch garments.

  • Handling delicate and high-stretch fabrics (like Lycra) with neatness and precision.

  • Checking tension and stitch quality to ensure every piece meets our excellent standards.

  • Working collaboratively with our cutting and packing teams to keep production moving smoothly.

What We Offer

  • Availability: Immediate start available.

  • Pay: Competitive / Dependent on experience (to be discussed at interview).

  • Overtime: Opportunities for increased earnings in the form of overtime to help us hit our weekly production and shipping targets.

  • Training: Full Style construction training provided on the job—no previous qualifications or experience needed!

  • Full-time hours: 37.5 hours per week.

  • Flexible schedule: Choose your own start and finish times to fit your lifestyle.

  • Half-day Fridays: Enjoy an early start to your weekend every single week!

  • A warm environment: Work within a friendly, supportive, and family-oriented business.

Our Interview Process
We don't believe in formal, stressful interviews. Instead, we invite shortlisted candidates to pop into the factory for an informal chat, a walkthrough to meet the team, and a short, paid machine trial. This gives us a chance to chat about your specific machine experience, lets you test our equipment, and ensures we are the right fit for each other.
