At REV’IT!, we do everything we can to lift the functionality of our motorcycle clothing to the next level. An important part of that is our ‘size and fit’ strategy. So we’re looking for a Fit Technician who can help us take the next step in that field.
Do you have technical skills as well as organisational talent? Then you might be the Fit Technician who can lift our ‘size and fit’ strategy to a higher level.
What can you expect from us?
As a Fit Technician, you are responsible for the development and implementation of our size and fit strategy. Your predecessor made a good start, but now we want to push on.
Your job will be to standardise the fit of our six different product categories, by optimizing our current patterns, creating a block library and implementing different gradings . Part of the job will involve technical aspects, where you will ensure that we achieve an optimal result. But it will also involve a challenging change process that mainly revolves around awareness.
3D will also play a major role in this position. By investing in 3D design, we aim to improve and accelerate our development process. As Fit and Pattern Specialist, you will naturally play an important role in this area.
In short: this is an extremely multifaceted position that involves more than just technical craftsmanship. But you will also play a decisive role in how we achieve our goals in the area of fitting. This is a unique opportunity for an entrepreneurial Fit and Pattern Specialist with ambition!
What does this mean in practice?
This position mainly involves technical craftsmanship, but it will also require a bit of organisational talent. Generally speaking, your job will entail the following:
- You’ll be responsible for the development and implementation of our size and fit strategy.
- You’ll optimise patterns, fits, sizes and other technical aspects that contribute to the wearability of our products.
- You’ll contribute to the development of samples and prototypes.
- You’ll ensure that our choices are fully compliant with strict internal and external quality standards and CE regulations.
- Throughout the process, you’ll focus on production feasibility and price.
- You’ll develop a library, tables and other tools to ensure the consistent global implementation of the size and fit strategy.
- In so doing, you’ll work closely together with the Product Developers and Product Designers for the various product categories.
- You’ll immerse yourself in the latest trends in techniques and materials, and naturally apply these to your work.
This is a full-time position (40 hours per week, 32 hours negotiable). You’ll report to the Product Development Director.
