2 Types Of Categories For A Product

Good afternoon,

 

I'm looking for advice on the best way to structure my categories and products; specifically to support 2 ways of navigating. 

 
We're selling work clothing and I would like users to be able to navigate in either way (for example, if looking for a shirt to wear for a security job):
 
Home > Sector > Security - then filter on Shirts
 
or
 
Home > Tops > Shirts - then filter by sector (e.g. Security). 
 
A product can belong to multiple sectors and categories. 
 
My first thought was to create a category for sector (containing sub-cats for each sector we wish to use) as well as categories for 'Tops', 'Trousers' etc and add the products to both. 
 
This is fine and allows a user to either search by product type (e.g. shirt) or sector (e.g. security) but doesn't allow the final stage of filtering. 
 
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
 
Thanks
 
Ben
