Introducing our London Maison

Be part of something iconic, Hermès GB is opening a brand-new Maison store at 166 New Bond Street, London, a true statement of Hermès. This flagship location represents everything we stand for; it’s a bold step forward, an iconic space that will set new standards in experience, innovation, and excellence.
In the words of Pierre-Alexis Dumas, Artistic Director – Creation & image, when describing what makes a Maison

“A store we call a Maison Hermès is a store that is on such a scale, in its architecture and surface area, that it perfectly embodies the spirit of the Hermès home, as it originally was. So, a Maison Hermès is an embassy, it’s a whole World, within which you can discover the culture of Hermès, beyond its products.
It is much more than a store.”

We are looking for a team of individuals who will all play a part collectively in crafting a culture, which emulates all that is unique to Hermes, to London and to the Maison. You will contribute to the Maison by bringing ambition, kindness, tenacity and a strong team spirit. You will be open minded, forward thinking, service and people orientated, showing humility and respect for others.

About us

Hermès was founded by Thierry Hermès in Paris in 1837, as a house of master harness making. In 1880, his son transferred the family firm to its now famous address, 24 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, where he expanded into the saddlery business. In 1918, with the advent of the automobile, the founder’s grandson, Émile Hermès, foresaw the changes to come in transportation.

He launched a line of fine leather goods and luggage with ‘saddle stitching’. The Hermès style was born and soon extended to include clothing, jewellery, diaries, silk scarves, and other items.

Today, Hermès is active in 16 different sectors including:
Leather Goods, Men’s and Women’s Silks, Men’s and Women’s Ready-to-Wear, Perfumes, Watches, Diaries, Hats, Footwear, Gloves and Belts, Enamel, Art of Living, Tableware and Jewellery.
International in scope, Hermès has continued to grow while remaining a family firm with a uniquely creative spirit that blends precision manufacturing with traditional craftsmanship.

Hermès really is a truly wonderful place to work. Close relationships, humility and a thirst for team success make the company’s management style unique. Behind the drive for excellence is a spirit of goodwill in which personal achievement is for the benefit of the group’s progress, and where everyone shows commitment and passion, depth and lightness in all that they do.

Learning and sharing, cultivating one’s curiosity and capacity to be amazed, innovating and never ceasing to push the boundaries of excellence are all crucial aspects of each individual’s development, and make up the company’s principle of continuous learning and passing down of knowledge
