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.

Our Perfect Match Is:

• Passionate about working in a business with a real mission and products they can get behind
• Someone who leads with kindness and empathy in every interaction, whether that's with a supplier, a colleague or someone in the global team
• A natural problem solver who asks good questions rather than making assumptions
• Tenacious about building relationships, comfortable reaching out cold if that's what it takes to get the right answer
• Service-oriented by nature, they think about the people relying on them to get things right
• Curious about how global finance teams work and excited to bring ideas back to the local team
• Detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely easy to work with
