Trusted by SaaS businesses – from scaling start-ups to established market leaders
FashionTech sits at the crossroads of design, commerce, data, and digital innovation. From virtual fitting rooms to AI-driven forecasting and sustainable supply chain technology, the sector requires talent that understands both the artistry of fashion and the complexity of advanced digital systems. Live Digital specialises in connecting FashionTech businesses with professionals who can elevate product experience, operational efficiency, and business growth.
FashionTech is redefining the global fashion ecosystem. No longer limited to aesthetics and trends alone, the modern fashion industry blends creativity with data science, automation, eCommerce, sustainability technologies, and immersive experiences.
Innovation in FashionTech spans areas such as:
With rising sustainability expectations, conscious consumption, rapid fulfilment demands, and a push for tighter inventory control, FashionTech businesses need talent who understand the entire journey — from design to delivery.
The UK’s FashionTech sector thrives across multiple creative and digital regions. London leads the landscape, home to luxury fashion houses, digital-first brands, styling platforms, fashion rental companies, and advanced AI-driven retail innovators. Neighbourhoods such as Shoreditch, Hackney, Peckham, and Camden are hotspots for start-ups blending creativity with deep technology.
Manchester is one of the UK’s strongest fashion and eCommerce hubs, with large online retailers and technology-led fashion operations driving innovation in data, logistics, and digital marketing. Liverpool also contributes through apparel supply chains, retail media, and creative-led digital commerce.
Across the Midlands — particularly Birmingham, Derby, and Nottingham — FashionTech activity intersects with garment manufacturing heritage, sustainability research, and digital product development. Meanwhile, the South East — including Surrey, Kent, and Hertfordshire — supports eCommerce fashion brands, fulfilment innovation, and DTC apparel businesses.
In Scotland, Edinburgh and Glasgow host digital agencies, analytics platforms, and emerging sustainable FashionTech businesses. The growing fashion resale, circular economy, and digital wardrobe sectors also attract talent to these areas.
FashionTech requires a uniquely hybrid set of skills. At Live Digital, we recruit across the full FashionTech ecosystem, from engineering to creative optimisation. Technology roles include software developers, full-stack engineers, platform specialists, and mobile developers who build high-performance digital shopping experiences, garment simulation tools, and eCommerce integrations. FashionTech businesses also require data specialists — including data scientists, analysts, and AI/ML engineers — who can interpret behavioural patterns, forecast trends, optimise demand planning, and drive personalisation engines.
On the product and UX side, we support hiring for product managers, product owners, and user experience designers who craft seamless digital journeys aligned with brand identity and consumer psychology. These roles are critical in enabling personalised shopping, virtual try-on functionality, and conversion-focused user experiences. Marketing and growth roles are also vital to FashionTech businesses, which often rely heavily on paid media, influencer partnerships, CRM, lifecycle marketing, brand storytelling, and performance analysis to scale rapidly.
Operationally, modern fashion requires specialists in supply chain optimisation, sustainability analytics, inventory control, merchandising technology, logistics coordination, virtual sampling, and manufacturing digitalisation. These professionals help brands improve efficiency, reduce stock waste, and adopt more sustainable, transparent processes. Additionally, FashionTech increasingly intersects with eCommerce marketplaces, requiring marketplace specialists, partnership managers, and commercial strategists.
This multi-disciplinary expertise ensures that FashionTech organisations can build products, processes, and experiences that meet the demands of modern consumers and a rapidly evolving digital commerce landscape.
We understand both the creative and technical sides of FashionTech — enabling us to source candidates who balance brand-led thinking with digital performance.
We prioritise candidates who understand fashion consumers — those who combine empathy, data, and mobile-first thinking to improve experience, conversion, and loyalty.
FashionTech demands rare combinations of skills: creative direction with data literacy, product expertise with trend forecasting, or AI knowledge with retail experience. We specialise in recruiting these hybrid profiles.
