Let’s talk brands…When it comes to UK retail, it’s hard to find a company with a bigger brand portfolio. We sell thousands of items an hour and our repeat customer base comes back to us time and time again for our renowned trend led, quality products. For anyone in the design field - this is the place to learn. To grow. And to thrive. 


The role
We have a really exciting opportunity for an experienced designer to join the Fashion Brands team at Next, where we design and manufacture the Childrenswear collections for brands such as Paul Smith, Ted Baker, Little Bird, Superdry and smALLSAINTS.
