Before we arrived on the scene, if you wanted really great beauty products, you had to shop at traditional beauty retail - and overpay for all the crazy markups. Now, our members have access to shop from the best-quality beauty and wellness products (from the leading labs in France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Japan, Korea, etc) and get a bigger piece of the Beauty Pie.
Our culture is our DNA. It defines who we are, how we operate and how we hire. And it all springs from our values, which are very important to us:

As a business that's based on fairness and self-worth, our commitment to inclusivity runs through the heart of everything we do. We believe that innovation and creativity come from having a diverse workforce, and are committed to building teams with unique identities, from different backgrounds and with individual perspectives.
We've got a long way to go, but here's how we're doing as of June 2023:
Female Employees - 72%
Employees from minority ethnic backgrounds - 39%
Women in our Tech teams - 46%
A bit about our ways of working
We foster a high-performance culture, where you are trusted to get the work done. We treat all of our teams like adults in giving them autonomy and flexibility.
At Beauty Pie we want to support employees to do their best work, have a good work life balance and work flexibly whilst staying connected - and getting the job done.
In order to encourage in-person collaboration and create a strong team environment, we aim to be in the office 3 days a week, with flexibility built in around role, type of work and personal requirements. We encourage you to discuss this as part of the interview process to understand the requirements in this role.
