About ESTA

ESTA is a Singapore-based uniform and apparel design company with a legacy of innovation and craftsmanship. We’ve worked with global brands and institutions in hospitality, aviation, corporate wear, and sportswear.

• Strong project management and organizational skills, with the ability to multitask and deliver under tight timelines.
• Proactive, adaptable, and resourceful team player with strong communication skills.
• Familiarity with fabrics, trims, garment construction, and production processes.
• Proficient in Microsoft Excel and comfortable managing documentation and order tracking systems.
