The Pour Moi team is growing fast and we’re looking for more passionate people to help our customers feel fabulous! Could you be part of the Pour Moi team?
From when we sold our very first bra way back in 2005, to today when we sell one approximately every 30 seconds, passion and playfulness is at the heart of everything we do. Our team is not the only thing about Pour Moi that’s expanding! Our range has grown along with us to include clothing, sportswear, nightwear and hosiery with exciting new developments planned for future seasons.
Our predicted annual turnover is £25 million, making us one of the leading brands in lingerie and swimwear. With sales increasing year on year, it means we need more brilliant people who share our passion, to join in with the next part of our story.
Before you decide to work somewhere new, you’ll want to know a bit more about the company to find out if it’s a good fit for you. So, to show off our best bits, we’ve put together a list of all the perks you can expect when you join Pour Moi.
Central offices in Brighton
Sunday night blues? What are they? Funny, friendly colleagues will make your Mondays much less painful. And then there’s our location. Want to go for a quick dip in the sea before work? Love to listen to a wild soundtrack - the noise of the local seagulls. Our Brighton offices let you do all this, plus they’re handy for the train station (and nipping to all the quirky independent shops in your lunch break).
Sharing the same goals helps us work together as a team. So, to make sure everyone’s on board, we offer a generous annual bonus scheme. After all, success is always better when you share it.
Got friends? We’ve got discounts. Whether you want to treat yourself to leggings or your mum to slippers, you'll receive an exclusive discount on all Pour Moi products.
