Diversify our future
We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It's what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.
We see you, we celebrate you, we want you!
Who we are
You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there's more to this great-smelling, partly employee‑owned, family‑run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good. We put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what's inside that counts – whether that's an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.
The role
Trainee Managers work alongside our Shop Managers, learning every element of the job and managing the shop in the absence of the Manager. Trainee Managers provide leadership and coordination on our shop floors, manage back‑of‑house tasks and set an aspirational example of customer service for the team. The skills and knowledge that you build up here are terrific for progressing through our business or for running your own in the future.
