At MJW, we make unusual, design-led watches that celebrate creativity and individuality. Everything we do, from design to final assembly happens right here in-house. By joining us, you'll become part of a passionate and friendly team committed not only to excellence in our products but also to fostering a supportive and respectful working environment.
About the role
This is an entry-level position, ideal for someone who has recently graduated or is at the beginning of their professional journey. You'll be working in our vibrant and creative workshop, getting hands-on with the physical side of what we do, from quality checking watches to packing them for shipping.
You'll support our administration and fulfilment team, helping to ensure that every watch we send out looks amazing, works perfectly, and is packed with care. You'll receive full training from experienced team members and gradually take on responsibility for your own work over time.

Quality checking stock according to QC guidelines
Engraving custom watch case-backs
Packing and preparing customer orders to a high standard

Assisting with stock management and workshop upkeep
Supporting general workshop tasks - whatever's needed to keep things running smoothly
What we're looking for
Someone eager to learn and ready to take on a variety of tasks
Excellent attention to detail
Comfortable with repetition and routine (some tasks are the same every day!)
A positive, proactive attitude; you're happy to lend a hand wherever needed
Good communication and collaboration skills
Confidence working independently
Experience or interest in printmaking, jewellery, watches, or another creative medium is a bonus (but not essential)
What we offer
