Why Join NoughtOne?
Because NaughtOne don’t make furniture for your home, you probably don’t know us. But LinkedIn, Google, and Adobe do—because they all have our designs in their workplaces.
The NaughtOne team are just as unique as the furniture we create. If you come to work with us, you’ll be joining a global business with a Yorkshire spirit.
We have colleagues all over the world because the world is our customer, but our personality reflects our home: down-to-earth, friendly, and honest.
We’ve received numerous accolades, including The Queen’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade, and that makes us proud. We’ve always cared deeply about sustainability, and we’re always looking for ways to do more and have a stronger impact. We don’t do it because it’s good for business—we do it because it’s the right thing.
If any of that makes you curious, good—because curious people thrive at NaughtOne. Perhaps you’ll be thriving at NaughtOne soon.

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
