Diversity Matters
We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It’s what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.
We see you, we celebrate you, we want you!
Who We Are
You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good.
The Living Wage Foundation’s statement 'a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay' is one that we are proud to commit to in the UK. As an accredited Living Wage employer, we put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.
The Role
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to grow their PR career in a values-driven, fast-paced environment. As our Regional and Anchor Store PR Coordinator, you will support and deliver PR activity across the UK & Ireland, helping to earn media coverage, build regional media relationships, and bring the Lush brand to life in communities up and down the country.
You will work closely with the UK&I Retail PR Lead and store teams, contributing to regional campaigns and anchor store PR while also supporting the day-to-day running of the press office. You will play an active role in key seasonal moments including Christmas, Diwali, Hanukkah, Lunar New Year and Valentine’s Day.
The role is hybrid, based between London and Liverpool, with very frequent travel across the UK&I as a core part of the role. This includes attending regional events, supporting anchor stores, and building media relationships in communities throughout the country.
