We're Nichols - the home of Vimto, and there is no other business quite like ours!
We have been making life taste better since 1908. Every day here is bursting with flavour – from the loved brands we’re proud to share with the world, to the energy, ambition and innovative ideas that fizz through our teams.
As well as our refreshingly different Vimto taste, our varied brand portfolio spans the still, carbonated, post-mix and frozen drinks categories – so you will find us in your local supermarket, pub and leisure outlet. We also work with the UK’s leading food manufacturers to provide a truly unique range of products that everyone loves.
At the heart of everything is our rich family heritage, an unrelenting ambition to keep innovating, and a true pride in who we are. This is a place where you can be yourself, speak up, and get stuck in. We celebrate the wins, cheer each other on and keep things fizzing with positivity. From leaders who listen to teammates who’ve always got your back, it’s work that feels as good as it tastes!
We take a refreshingly agile approach to how we work, combining the energy of being together in the office with the flexibility of working from home. You’ll be office-based three days a week, with core hours designed to help you balance work and home life.
Nichols is where serious fun meets real opportunities – and where work tastes better.
