Bleacher Athletic is the sports division of Cotton On Group, creating licensed apparel and fanwear across the AFL, AFLW and NRL.
Alongside this, we are the team behind Upstate Sport - a fast-growing women's activewear brand born in the studio and built for real life. Designed to move seamlessly from workout to everyday wear, Upstate Sport blends performance, style and community.
With exciting growth plans ahead, this is an opportunity to join the brand at a pivotal stage and help shape what's next.
As the Upstate Sport brand continues to grow, we have an exciting opportunity for a Designer to join the team. In this role, you'll bring product to life by translating trend direction and buying briefs into on‐brand, commercially relevant designs that resonate with our customer. You'll play a key role in shaping seasonal ranges, contributing ideas across silhouettes, graphics and product concepts.
Working cross‐functionally with Buying, Production and Marketing, you'll support the end‐to‐end design process -from concept through to development - ensuring product aligns to brand DNA, customer needs and commercial outcomes. With a strong eye for detail and graphics, you'll help drive product performance while balancing creativity with commercial impact.
This is a hands‐on design role where you'll contribute to both newness and the evolution of best sellers, continually refining product based on performance insights, feedback and market trends. If you're ready for your next move and excited by the opportunity to shape product within a growing brand, we'd love to connect.
