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 is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.

Please note:
We may close this vacancy early if we receive an overwhelming response or our business requirements change.

Lush Global Digital Limited is in its eighth year, having been set up in July 2017 as part of the Lush Group. The company is dedicated to supplying Lush entities with uniquely designed and built technology, customised to supporting the Lush business globally. As well as this, providing the network infrastructure to support the growing business and making a conscious effort to ensure the use of ethical technology throughout Lush.

As part of the continued pursuit to improve our global system architecture, a number of transformation programmes are currently underway in Manufacturing, Retail and Finance. We are also constantly releasing new features and tools for customers and staff across our Digital estate. As a result, we require a Digital Systems Accountant to support rollout and post implementation support of finance and Digital systems across the business.

Acting as the link between Finance and Digital, the role ensures that systems are fit for purpose, support efficient and accurate reporting, and meet evolving business needs, including already existing and new Digital systems and features. This is a global role and requires a high level of stakeholder engagement and management, as well as providing financial acumen and an attention to detail.

This role would suit someone with a keen interest in technology and systems and proven track record of delivering software solutions. Previous project management experience would be a bonus as there will be a number of different tracks of work moving at the same time. We would also encourage a high degree of initiative, self discovery and constant learning in the digital and technology space.

As a global role, travel will be likely, as and when required.
