Experienced Tailor / Seamstress

$350 per month

Arizona Alterations

Job Description

Job Description

Join Arizona Alterations — a premier Phoenix tailoring shop with the best reputation in the Valley and a loyal, repeat customer base. With 30+ new items daily and strong growth, we’re hiring an experienced Tailor or Seamstress to start immediately and help us deliver outstanding work while capturing more opportunity.

Keep 50% of every completed ticket with no cap and consistent high volume (90% garments: 50% everyday alterations, 40% bridal/formal, 10% non-garment).

Recent examples include:
  • A beaded evening gown alteration: $350 ticket
  • 3 dress hems + take-ins: $300 ticket
  • 39 items, all hems: $750 ticket

Full-time schedule options: 8 AM–4 PM or 10 AM–6 PM Tuesday - Saturday . Plenty of work means steady earnings for fast, accurate professionals.

Your Role: Work on a wide range of projects using industrial machines (including blind stitch and cover stitch):

  • Deconstruct and reconstruct garments — from simple pant hems and tapers to complex jacket reconstructions and wedding gowns
  • Occasional non-garment items like curtains or cushion repairs

Requirements:

  • 5+ years professional experience as a seamstress or tailor in a shop or production environment (this is not a role for home sewers or those still learning)
  • Ability to work quickly with high accuracy and few errors
  • Comfortable and skilled operating industrial sewing machines
  • Good English fluency for team communication and following instructions
  • Legal authorization to work in the United States
  • Strong work ethic, positive attitude, and team-player mindset

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

  • Relaxed, friendly shop atmosphere with great music and free drinks
  • Owner with 30+ years experience (including 10 years in garment manufacturing as a production/tech designer) works side-by-side with the team
  • Supportive 4-person crew that helps with garment deconstruction and shares expertise
  • Real growth potential: pure sewing role or path to store manager for the right person
  • Pride in serving a loyal customer base known for excellent craftsmanship

Next Steps: Send your resume and photos/examples of your work. Strong candidates will complete a skills test and paid tryout period. Full-time start ASAP . Location near 40th St & Bell Rd, Phoenix.
