About the job

Every size of every garment has to fit. You’re the one who makes sure it does.

At Suspicious Antwerp, an approved collection sample is only the start. Between that sample and bulk production, measurements, grading, construction and accessories can all drift. You are the technical link between the collection sample and production, making sure every size of every garment fits and meets our standards.

You work for both menswear and womenswear, in the back office, between the Product Developers, Designers and Production. You check, measure and grade, catch what’s off before it ships, and solve construction issues with the factory.
