Careers at Bellroy
Junior Softgoods Designer

IN A NUTSHELL

Inspiring better ways to carry is at the core of Bellroy's mission and we’re on the hunt for a junior soft-goods designer to help our customers move through the world with greater ease, simplicity and enjoyment. We founded Carryology to connect with the carry community and learn from it. With Bellroy, we look to put those learnings into practice and find fresh, innovative solutions to every problem.

As our Junior Soft-goods Designer, you will work beside diversely skilled product designers, our pattern-maker, product developers and guest experts who are all passionate about design and carry, and Bellroy’s strong place within both. You’ll collaborate widely, both inside the business with our creative, development and product management teams, and outside it, with our world-class suppliers. You’ll work through your ideas in our design lab, where we can pattern and prototype new wallets, bags and carry goods in any given day (and still manage to check the surf). And you’d be part of a global business on a mission to lead the way – in both carry, and in business. If this sounds like the job of your dreams, read on.

YOU MIGHT BE THE ONE, IF…

You are hungry to learn and build your skills. You’re probably fresh out of uni and wanting to put your design theory to the test in a practical environment.

The idea of putting something out there, taking the feedback on board and iterating constantly in a dynamic environment is exciting (if a little nerve-wracking) to you. You’re not in it for pats on the back – you are more interested in growing ideas and improving designs with a team of people. Because you understand that at the end of the day, putting the best product in a customer’s hands is more important than anything else.

And because of that, you enjoy collaboration. We don’t believe in design generation in silos; we believe that the best design comes from challenging conversations. You feel excited by the prospect of joining these discussions, and to progress your own projects with input and direction from the group.

You enjoy being hands on and able to work directly with senior teams to support the development of ideas, from insights and hunches into sketches and prototypes.

IF YOU WERE HERE LAST WEEK, HERE ARE SOME OF THE THINGS YOU MIGHT HAVE DONE...

  • Brainstormed with the design team on how to incorporate some user insights into a product range
  • Developed three concepts for an idea your project leader had, helping them form a better idea of what the end product could be
  • Worked in the lab to test some ideas in prototype form, then jammed with the other designers about how the prototypes came out
  • Contributed to a discussion about some new ideas, as both sounding board and collaborator
  • Scoured a pinterest board and laid out a colour and material mood board for a new range
  • Worked with Tara, our Design Studio Director, to get ideas about higher resolution sewn forms
  • Created Illustrator specifications for a successful prototype, ensuring our suppliers have the best chance of understanding the vision
  • Walked to Bird Rock lookout with the team, to check the ocean and let a little bit of nature soak into your senses (and maybe inspire your creativity).

WHY WORK FOR BELLROY?

We make great products that delight people in their everyday lives. We help our staff love their work and grow as people. We believe in working to help make the world a better place. As a certified B Corp , we pursue better ways to source our leathers (for environmental impact and animal welfare), reduce our impact on the environment and make sure our products last as long as possible. We are constantly looking for better ways to do… well, everything.

LA NOSTRA MISSIONE

Creare modi migliori per portare con sé gli oggetti.
Usare il business a scopo di bene.
Aiutare il mondo e il nostro team a progredire.

I nostri spazi

Bellroy è una fusione delle nostre due case - Bells Beach e Fitzroy. Bells Beach contribuisce con la sua atmosfera rilassata della vita all'aperto, per bilanciare lo stile urbano e creativo di Fitzroy. La città e il mare; ispirazione e avventura. Insieme creano un equilibrio perfetto.

Bells Beach

La nostra sede principale sulla spiaggia si trova dietro gigantesche scogliere di arenaria, che si affacciano su una delle coste australiane più famose per il surf. È qui che i nostri Product Designer fanno le prove nel Maker Lab e il nostro team di vendita consuma quantità impressionanti di caffè e traffico internet su Skype. Qui siamo più tranquilli rispetto ai nostri vicini a Fitzroy e ci piace la concentrazione che si viene a creare. Se hai bisogno di un boccone c'è un bar proprio qui accanto e alle 11:00 controlliamo sempre se ci sono le condizioni per fare surf, l'occasione perfetta per rinfrescare la mente con un po' di aria salina.

Fitzroy

Il nostro spazio di Fitzroy è immerso nel centro creativo di Melbourne. È qui che i nostri team creativi, marketing, ingegneristici e operativi sviluppano campagne e garantiscono che ogni prodotto Bellroy venga inviato in sicurezza in tutto il mondo. Esci dalla porta e troverai strade piene di energia (e il miglior ramen al di fuori di Tokyo).

Da remoto

Al di fuori delle due nostre sedi principali, abbiamo una squadra che lavora a distanza - dall'Australia occidentale a parti dell'Asia, degli USA e dell'Europa. Essere globale è un caposaldo in Bellroy, ci tiene connessi e ci permette di vedere la vita da molte prospettive diverse. Se sei dotato di una connessione a Internet e della flessibilità di diventare parte di un team che non vedi tutti i giorni, potresti valutare di unirti alla nostra rete globale costantemente in crescita.
