• Who we are

You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, privately-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that responsible business can be a force for good. We fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that what’s inside counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or open source code.

The Team

Lush Digital leads digital strategy for Lush across online, retail & manufacturing globally, creating, developing and supporting the tools that drive the business. From design, artwork & photography to engineering, systems & data, we support all of Lush’s digital needs.

The Role

You will be supporting the Business Tools team who focus on our Manufacturing & Retail businesses, developing a range of tooling to support areas of the business as diverse as our raw ingredients sourcing team, our product production teams, as well as our forecasting, fulfilment and retail teams.

What you’ll do:

As Web Engineer for our Tools Team, you’ll work to build both web and mobile solutions cross-functionally alongside UI Designers, Back-End Developers, QA Test Engineers, Business Analysts and Product Managers for stakeholders from our Retail & Manufacturing arms of the business.

What’s it like working for Lush

People are at the heart of our business. We want you to enjoy and challenge yourself, build a career, and teach us what we don’t know, so we’ve created a culture where your job description is a starting point, not an end goal. Our working style is flexible, fluid, supportive, and authentic - if you’ve got the drive to push yourself and try different things, you will have our support.

As we pride ourselves on internal development, priority will be given to candidates who have an in-depth knowledge of Lush coupled with relevant experience and qualifications.
