We are looking for an experienced, confident seamstress to join our friendly, long-established soft furnishings workshop.
In this role, you won't be doing repetitive production line work. Instead, you will be crafting beautiful, bespoke curtains and Roman blinds from scratch. You will manage and sew each piece from start to finish, meaning every fabric, project, and job will be completely different!
While previous curtain or blind making experience is welcomed, it is not essential—we provide comprehensive training (typically 1–4 months) in our specific products, methods, and finishing techniques. This is a stable, permanent daytime position in a supportive environment where craft quality and attention to detail are truly valued.
WHAT WE OFFER:
- ENGAGING, VARIED WORK: Create bespoke pieces from start to finish, ensuring no two days or projects are exactly the same.
- COMPETITIVE EARNINGS: Typical total earnings: £2,650 – £3,100 per month before tax
- GREAT WORK-LIFE BALANCE: Start your weekend early with a 2:00pm finish every Friday.
- CONVENIENT COMMUTE: Free on-site parking available, and located just a short walk from Canterbury East train station.
- COMPREHENSIVE TRAINING: Fully supported learning for made-to-measure curtain and blind manufacturing.
- PAID LEAVE: 28 days' paid annual holiday.
- WORKING HOURS: 7:15am – 4:00pm Monday to Thursday, with an early finish at 2:00pm on Fridays
This is a stable, permanent daytime position in a supportive team environment where craft quality and attention to detail are valued.
