Stitching Stories, One Pet at a Time

At Lucy & Lola, we transform treasured photographs into embroidered keepsakes. Every portrait we create celebrates a beloved companion, capturing personality, expression, and memories through thread.

We're looking for someone with a creative eye, a love of detail, and a genuine appreciation for craftsmanship to join our embroidery studio. This role combines traditional making skills with modern digital design, offering the opportunity to develop as both an artist and a creative professional through a fully funded Level 6 Creative Digital Design Professional Apprenticeship.

Whether you're already interested in textiles, illustration, design, or simply love the idea of creating meaningful products for people around the world, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role

You'll begin working with us full-time from August 2026, learning the foundations of our embroidery process and becoming part of our production team. In January 2027, you'll start your Creative Digital Design Professional Level 6 Apprenticeship alongside your role.

As a Pet Portrait Embroidery Artist Apprentice, you'll help bring customer portraits to life, working with both digital artwork and commercial embroidery machinery to create beautifully finished products.

Reviewing personalisation details and artwork placement
Selecting garments, fabrics, and materials for each order
Loading embroidery files and templates into our systems
Framing and preparing items ready for stitching
Setting up thread colours and machine configurations
Operating and overseeing multiple embroidery machines
Maintaining equipment to ensure exceptional stitch quality
Contributing to a smooth and efficient studio workflow
Developing creative, digital, and design skills through your apprenticeship

Who We're Looking For

You might be a great fit if you are:

Creative and naturally detail-oriented
Patient and proud of producing high-quality work
Organised and able to manage multiple tasks
Curious and eager to learn new skills
Reliable, motivated, and self-driven
Comfortable working in a busy, hands-on environment
Interested in art, design, textiles, ecommerce, or personalised products

Bonus Points If You Have

Experience with embroidery, sewing, or textiles
An interest in illustration, graphic design, or branding
Familiarity with Shopify or ecommerce platforms
Experience using creative software
Previous experience working with machinery or production equipment

Your Apprenticeship

Alongside your role, you'll complete the:

This will help you develop skills in:

Creative and digital design
Visual storytelling and branding
Design for ecommerce
Customer-focused creative experiences
Digital production workflows
Professional creative practice

What You'll Gain

Full-time employment from day one
A fully funded Level 6 qualification
Hands-on experience within a growing creative brand
Mentorship and practical training
The opportunity to blend digital creativity with physical craftsmanship
Clear progression opportunities as the business grows

If you're excited by the idea of turning beloved pets into embroidered works of art and want to build a career that combines creativity, technology and making, we'd love to hear from you.
