Permanent Hires for Sewing, Cutting and Pattern Making Roles

Finding skilled sewing and textiles staff is not easy.
You need people who understand garments, fabrics, construction, fit, finishing and pace. A resume can say sewing machinist, cutter or pattern maker, but the real question is whether that person can step into your business, handle the work properly and fit the team long term.
That is where Trial By Fire Recruitment helps.
We specialise in permanent recruitment for fashion, textiles, clothing alterations and production businesses that need capable people who take pride in their work

In this industry, detail matters.
A good hire needs more than basic sewing experience. They need speed, care, accuracy, fabric knowledge and the ability to work to the standard your customers expect.
Whether your business handles clothing alterations, textile production, fashion sampling, garment repairs or made-to-measure work, we help you find people who can contribute properly.
