Garment Tech Role for Thrivin

Job description

Garment Technologist Role at Thrivin

Mid-Level | Remote | 4 Days per Week

At THRIVIN, we don’t make average gymwear.

We build performance-driven pieces designed to sculpt, move, and dominate in the gym, without compromising on quality or accessibility.

We are looking for a mid-level Garment Technologist who can take ownership of fit and quality execution across collections.

Someone structured, detail-obsessed, and confident working directly with factories. This is not a senior leadership role, but it is not junior. You will be expected to manage your workflow independently.

1. What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Running weekly fit sessions across multiple sizes
• Owning fit comments and ensuring they are clear, concise and actionable
• Reviewing tech packs with designers to ensure construction accuracy
• Checking graded specs and advising on corrections before sampling
• Managing the sealing process and flagging delays early
• Liaising directly with factories (UK + Far East)
• Reviewing fabric and construction standards for performance and durability
• Reviewing lab test reports and highlighting risk areas
• Ensuring all products comply with REACH legislation
• Working closely with design, buying and merchandising teams
• Partnering with QC on bulk inspections and resolving issues fast
• Maintaining and elevating Thrivin’s fit and quality standards

1. What We’re Looking For

• 3–5+ years experience within activewear, lingerie, or performance apparel
• Strong knowledge of circular knit and soft bra construction
• Confident reviewing graded specs and test reports
• Comfortable communicating directly with overseas factories
• Highly organised and detail-oriented
• Proactive problem solver, you don’t wait to be told
• Comfortable working remotely and managing your own schedule
• Fluent in technical garment terminology

Bonus:

• Factory experience
• Sustainability knowledge
• Experience scaling fast-moving collections

1. The Type of Person Who Will Thrive Here

You:

• Notice when a garment is 1cm off.
• Care deeply about fit precision.
• Push back on factories when standards slip.
• Understand gymwear is performance product — not just fashion.
• Want to build something big.

1. Structure

• 4 days per week
• Remote
• Competitive freelance day rate (based on experience)
