Vacant job

As a Textile Evaluator at Wargön Innovation, you play a vital role in our work towards a more circular textile industry. You assess and classify second-hand textiles based on quality, condition, and reuse potential. By determining which garments can be reused, recycled, or handled in other ways, our textile evaluators directly contribute to extending the lifespan of textiles and reducing waste.

The role is practical and involves working at a fast pace where quick decisions are often required. You work closely with colleagues in an engaged team where attention to detail, quality, and sustainability are at the center. You work together to achieve set goals, where your drive and effort make a difference.

As a Textile Evaluator, you work both manually and with technical support. You use your knowledge of materials and details together with the technical equipment in our innovation environment to ensure high quality in sorting. You have an interest in textiles, fashion, and reuse, and thrive in an environment where teamwork is central. You are meticulous, quality-conscious, and have an eye for detail, but also a positive attitude towards learning new things and developing together with others.

Main Responsibilities:

• Evaluate textiles according to set criteria (e.g., condition, material, usability).
• Sort textiles into the correct flow: reuse, recycling, special handling.
• Contribute to maintaining the team's goals.
