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's what’s inside that counts – whether that’s an ingredient in a product or the minerals in a smartphone.
The role
Seasonal sales assistants work at the forefront of our business & provide 5-star customer service. We need you to be passionate, motivated and enthusiastic about showcasing our beautiful products. You need to be an excellent team player who is ready to receive feedback to validate and coach you in showcasing 5-star customer experiences.
You'll ask insightful questions to uncover the right products for each customer and showcase them through engaging product demonstrations. Support their buying decisions by asking questions to confirm interest and secure sales. Give shop tours through intelligent link sales, create bespoke routines and provide pampering sit-down consultations with decadent hand and arm massages as part of our daily work.
With in-depth training on our products and ingredients, you will be a Lush Ambassador representing our ethics and values to our customers and play a crucial part in creating the ultimate experience for our guests, offering the best customer service on the high street.

Since establishing in 1995 in Poole, Dorset, Lush has been driven by innovation and its ethics.
Creators of pioneering beauty products such as the fizzing bath bomb, shower jellies and solid shampoo bars, we place emphasis on fresh ingredients like organic fruits and vegetables, fight against animal testing and combat over-packaging by developing products that can be sold ‘naked’ to the customer without any packaging.
We currently operate in 52 countries with 928 global shops. Through our separate business divisions we invent, manufacture and sell our handmade products direct to our customers through our own shops and online. The fact that we make all our products by hand is something we are really rather proud of!
Lush is 10% Employee Owned since 2017 and our people are the heart and soul of our business.
