We are an international company that cares about culture and diversity. Our group is headquartered in Hong Kong and has offices in Los Angeles, Seoul, Shanghai, Taipei, Tokyo and our team comes from 27+ nationalities.

Purpose of Position
We are hiring a Lead Designer to help define and build a distinctive accessories language for the brand across customisable products, charms, add-ons, small leather goods, and related lifestyle accessories.
This role is for a designer with the ability to create products that feel recognizable, refined, and enduring—not simply attractive or trend-responsive. The successful candidate will combine strong creative authorship with disciplined execution, shaping products that express clear brand codes, elevated materiality, and a coherent collectible logic across core, seasonal, and limited programs.
This person will own the design process from concept through launch, while contributing to a broader product language that can scale over time. They must be capable of designing both individual hero pieces and modular systems that build long-term brand equity through consistency, desirability, and thoughtful evolution.

- Resolve every element of the product to a high standard, from proportion and construction logic to hardware, edges, stitching, embossing, and final finish.
- Exercise strong editing judgment, knowing where to create signature expression and where restraint creates greater value.
Development & Production Partnership
- Partner closely with product development, suppliers, and factories to translate design intent into high-quality production outcomes.
- Review prototypes and samples rigorously, refining construction, material expression, finish, usability, and proportion.
- Understand production capability, technical constraints, tooling implications, and cost trade-offs without lowering the design bar.
- Protect product integrity through disciplined decision-making during development.
Brand Coherence & Collectible Framework
- Ensure consistency across collections, drops, and categories while allowing for meaningful evolution.
- Design within a product architecture that spans core, seasonal, limited, and collectible tiers.

- Contribute to a product ecosystem that strengthens collectibility, desirability, and long-term brand memory.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner with Merchandising on assortment logic, category architecture, and product role.
- Collaborate with Marketing and Brand teams to support campaign storytelling and launch relevance.
