We do things differently from the inside out. We pride ourselves on our unique and inclusive culture, which is professional but always human, with a focus on open communication and encouraging our teams to deliver the very best they can for themselves and the business. As a Founder-led brand we continue to be driven by the same energy and passion that grew the business to its initial success. This makes for both a challenging and exciting place of work and, with our focus on high performance, we make sure we balance the challenge with plenty of support. We're looking for exceptional people, both in skill set and values, to join us and help continue our ambitious growth.

Mint Velvet Values
‘With Soul’
Profit isn't our only measure of success - we want Mint Velvet to be a fun and inspiring place to work, offering excellent career development for our people. We believe that doing business ethically matters. We are never too formal, always human, warm and personal - knowing empathy and kindness go a long way. We want everything we do to have a considered quality, as we believe it's the little things that make life lovely.
‘Courage & Resilience’
Our business operates on a culture of honesty - knowing people trust you when you speak the truth and stand up for what you think is right. We know that only by taking smart risks can we drive real change. We need our people to have resilience, discipline and grit - remaining resourceful under stress, even when events are outside of your control.
‘Passion & Drive’
We care about what we do and want the business to be the best it can be, so we look for people who are tenacious, optimistic and positive. We encourage our teams to tackle challenges with an 'I get to do this', not an 'I have to do this' approach. We believe in doing the basics well, or nothing else matters, never forgetting what we are here for.
‘Entrepreneurial Spirit’
We're ambitious and never want to stand still; our teams are encouraged to have a strong sense of ownership for their roles - sharing a growth mindset and seeing the opportunities available to us. We want our teams to be motivated and agile - relentlessly focused on driving us forwards, and knowing the value of freedom within a framework.
‘Collaborative’
We believe a strong team achieves more than a team of strong individuals ever will. We work hard to create culture where everyone feels included - sharing information and ideas openly, feeding back candidly and practicing honesty, always with deep kindness. We put what is best for the company and the customer first, no ego getting in the way.
