About this role

Tailor – Surmesur

Who we are

At Surmesur, we’re redefining the custom clothing experience. Our boutiques are built around one goal: delivering a true “wow” moment, through exceptional fit, thoughtful design, and a highly personalized client journey. We don’t just make suits. We build wardrobes, confidence, and presence.

We’re growing, and we’re looking for a Tailor who takes pride in their craft and wants to be part of a brand that’s pushing the industry forward.

Our culture (what we actually care about)

• Be better – We’re always refining, improving, and raising the bar

• Be creative – We value ideas, innovation, and personal style

• Take action – We move fast and deliver for our clients

• Have fun – We take the work seriously, not ourselves

What you’ll do

This is a hands-on, high-impact role. You’ll own the quality and precision of our garments and play a key role in the client experience.

• Execute high-level alterations (jackets, trousers, vests, shirts — full scope)

• Ensure every garment meets Surmesur’s fit standards

• Manage alteration timelines and client expectations with precision

• Support fittings alongside the styling team when needed

• Identify fit issues quickly and propose clean, effective solutions

• Maintain an organized, professional tailoring space

• Collaborate with the Branch Manager on recurring fit challenges and improvements

Who you are

• Passionate about tailoring, craftsmanship, and fashion

• Detail-obsessed — you notice what others miss

• Fast, efficient, and accountable under pressure

• Comfortable working independently and with a team

• Solutions-driven — you don’t just flag problems, you fix them

• Adaptable and open to new tools, processes, and ways of working

What you bring

• 5+ years of menswear tailoring experience (preferred)

• Strong understanding of garment construction and fit

• Advanced alteration experience across jackets, trousers, vests, and shirts

• Experience with industrial machines (hemming, serger, etc.)

• Ability to diagnose fit issues and execute precise corrections

• Strong time management and organizational skills

What we offer

• Competitive salary (based on experience)

• Commission program

• Clothing allowance + 60% employee discount

• Ongoing training and development

• A fast-growing brand with real opportunity to grow your role

If you care about craftsmanship, take pride in your work, and want to be part of a team that’s building something meaningful, we’d love to meet you.
