Who are we?
At the boohoo group we pride ourselves on doing things differently. Our attitude is simple: Hire the very best people in the sector and give them the scope, autonomy and authority to use their talent to drive our business forward.
Working collaboratively is a must, sharing ideas and problem solving together part of our DNA and our culture… thats simple too: Better to try and fail than not try at all, we dont finger point, we dont blame, we just problem solve and try again.
The boohoo group is growing at a phenomenal rate: In the last two years alone, weve grown from 5 brands to 13, from 13m customers to 19m and grown our social media following by 20m. In 2020 we had just 44 websites and Apps we now have 81.
Driving this amount of growth requires talent. Our amazing teams work at pace, they plan to win, they break down barriers and they succeed. In 2021 we have launched 4 new brands, including Debenhams.com which is a totally new concept for the Group, which got delivered in 12 weeks.
