Overview

Medik8 is transforming the industry with science-backed technology and a dedication to exceptional skincare products that has built a reputation for excellence. Our goal is to continue to scale the business through global expansion, multi-channel distribution and product innovation.

At Medik8, we believe that diversity within our workplace drives innovation. We celebrate multiple backgrounds, cultures, approaches and points of view, and believe that when people feel respected and included, they can truly flourish. We’re committed to advancing equal opportunities and we’re dedicated to building a workforce as diverse as our consumer base, creating a multifaceted, equitable and inclusive culture and allowing all colleagues to bring their whole selves to work.

Our DE&I ethos also flows through our recruitment process. Studies have found that minority groupings tend to apply for roles only when they meet 100% of the role requirements, in comparison to non‑minority groupings that tend to apply when they meet only 60% of the role requirements (Hewlett Packard). The requirements listed in our job descriptions are guidelines, not hard and fast rules, so if you think you meet 60+% of the role spec and are passionate, excited and feel you have the potential to fulfil the rest, then we want to hear from you!
