Military Coordinator

  • Full-time

Company Description

This role is full time.

Our company was formed from two famous military tailors: Gieves, founded in 1785 and Hawkes, founded in 1771. Gieves became a celebrated supplier of the British Royal Navy and Hawkes of the British Army.

In 1974 Gieves acquired Hawkes and moved from the flagship store to Savile Row in 1975, to become known as Gieves & Hawkes

To continue our growth, we are now looking for a Military Coordinator at our flagship store, 1 Savile Row.

    Job Description

    Executive Summary:

    With three Royal Warrants to our name, at the prestigious address of No.1 Savile Row, Gieves & Hawkes maintains its position at the heart of English tailoring. Both Thomas Hawkes and James Gieve were quintessential English gentleman who understood the needs of international travellers and explorers.  They dressed with style, dignity, confidence and charm. They were curators of the finest things in life, set high standards of artisan craftsmanship and quality. They were maverick and risk takers. Men who enjoyed life. Men who looked further than the shores of England. These values remain true to the heritage and quality of the Gieves and Hawkes brand ethos.
