Today, as we continue our exciting expansion across the UK, we’re looking for passionate, driven individuals to help shape the future of prestige beauty in one of the world’s most dynamic retail markets.

You’ll work closely with brand partners and teams across Marketing, Commercial and the wider business to turn ideas into memorable, high-impact campaigns. From coordinating launches and managing assets to tracking performance and identifying opportunities for growth, you’ll help ensure every activation is seamless, commercially effective and unmistakably SEPHORA.
