About Amberta

Amberta is a growing e-commerce jewellery brand based in Edinburgh. We are looking for a practical, quality-focused Bench Jeweller to join us on a part-time basis and help us build a small, efficient in-house workshop function.

We are at the early stage of setting up our in-house bench area, so this role combines hands-on repair, polishing and QA work with advice on tools, equipment, supplier questions and safe working processes.

What you’ll do

Core bench work

- Assess jewellery items before work begins and advise whether repair, resizing, polishing, adjustment or improvement is suitable.

- Assess and resize suitable rings where technically appropriate, with particular care around hollow, lightweight, stone-set, plated or delicate constructions. Advise clearly when resizing or repair is not recommended, too risky, or should be outsourced.

- Carry out suitable soldering and minor bench repairs, including chain repairs, jump ring repairs, clasp repairs, earring post repairs and small component adjustments.

- Polish, clean and refinish jewellery to a saleable standard.

- Carry out quality checks on incoming stock and imperfect items, advising whether pieces can be repaired, improved, sold, returned to the supplier or rejected.

- Keep clear repair notes and communicate what work was completed, what was not possible, and why.

Workshop setup and supplier support

- Help us set up a small in-house bench/workshop function from the ground up.

- Advise on essential tools, consumables, safety requirements and equipment priorities.

- Help define which tasks can be handled in-house and which should remain outsourced.

- Support supplier/manufacturer follow-ups by advising on product construction, materials, repair limitations and suitable equipment.

- Help create internal repair, cleaning, polishing and QA procedures.

What we’re looking for

Essential

- Proven professional bench jewellery, or jewellery repair experience.

- Strong practical bench skills across repair, polishing, cleaning and finishing.

- Experience resizing rings, including hollow, lightweight or delicate rings.

- Experience working with precious metals.

- Good knowledge of soldering and practical bench repair techniques.

- Ability to assess jewellery construction before attempting repair or resizing.

- Strong understanding of when an item should not be repaired, resized or altered.

- High attention to detail and strong quality-control standards.

- Ability to work independently in a small business environment.

- Clear communication skills, especially when explaining technical limitations to a non-technical ecommerce team.

- Reliable, organised and able to work to agreed priorities and deadlines.

Desirable

- Experience with e-commerce jewellery, QA or production workflows.

- Experience advising on workshop setup, tools, consumables and supplier questions.

- Experience with claw checks, retipping or minor setting-related repairs.

- Background in a trade workshop, independent jeweller, Birmingham Jewellery Quarter workshop or similar environment.

- Apprenticeship, HND, degree or equivalent bench-trained background welcome, but proven bench ability matters most.

What we offer

- Flexible part-time role, 2 days per week.

- Friendly, supportive small-business environment.

- Opportunity to help shape a new in-house workshop function from the ground up.

- Potential for the role to grow into additional days or a full-time position as our in-house workshop function develops.

Assessment process

Shortlisted candidates will first be invited to a short phone or video interview to discuss their qualifications, credentials and bench background. Successful candidates will then be invited to complete a short, paid practical bench assessment, held at our Edinburgh office, using non-saleable sample items. The assessment may include item inspection, polishing/finishing, repair-feasibility assessment and discussion of how you would approach hollow or delicate rings.

To apply
Please send your CV, a short note about your repair/bench background, and, where possible, a small portfolio or examples of relevant work.

Please also mention any relevant experience with ring resizing, hollow or lightweight jewellery, chain/clasp/earring repairs, polishing and finishing, workshop setup, ecommerce jewellery, or QA.

Pay: £12,800.00-£14,400.00 per year
