We are always on the look out for talented, like-minded individuals.
Get in touch with us if you excel in your field, thrive in a dynamic environment, enjoy the pursuit of excellence and can do all this with a smile!
OUR LEADERS
WHY WORK HERE?
Winch Design is a unique and special place to work.
We are relentlessly creative, our ambition and curiosity drive us to create ‘our first’ on land, sea, and air. The environment is inspirational, collaborative and innovation driven. We work hard, but equally we know when, and how to have fun!
Proud to be Employee-Owned
Our Founders, Andrew and Jane Winch, built the business on the principle that our people should be at the heart of everything we do. In 2021 this long-established principle was cemented by tangibly handing over ownership of the business to our employee owners. This means each and every one of us has a voice in the direction of our business and stands to benefit from our success.
These are just a few reasons why you will love working with us.

OUR VALUES
OUR JOB OPENINGS
OUR RECRUITMENT PROCESS
-
A personal approach
Our preference is to work directly with candidates, rather than through recruiters, so that we can get to know each other very early on in the process.
We spend time getting to know you and what you are looking for in your next role. Equally, we encourage you to ask us lots of questions to help you decide if a career at Winch Design might be right for you.
We continually connect with active and passive candidates, to make sure we are already connected when your ideal role becomes available.
-
Virtual and face to face meetings
First interviews are held virtually with our HR team. We will explore your experience, alongside the role we are looking to fill. We will also give you greater insight into life at Winch Design.
Second meetings are also virtual, and held with the hiring manager, who will delve deeper into the role on offer and how this aligns with your previous experience.
Third and final stage interviews will be face to face, allowing candidates to see, and feel the atmosphere, of the studio where their role might be based.
-
Timelines and communication
Whilst no two hires are the same, we aim to follow the same process, and pace of hire, for each vacancy we have.
Timelines will vary according to the role, sometimes these are set in stone, and sometimes are quite fluid, due to parameters beyond our control.
We endeavour to keep all candidates informed throughout all stages of the process and will offer, and request, feedback following each interview.
