It's not your typical office environment

I’m big on brand, so a heritage company with such a global reach was something that really appealed to me. The product designs are fresh and fashion-forward but the classic comfort remains. My role is the procurement of all non-footwear goods and services globally, based out of our Head Office in Street. I’m currently in the process of relocating to the South West – Clarks have been a great help with the move.

The Clarks HQ? It’s not your typical office environment, it’s fun and social with lots of flexibility. There’s an eclectic mix of people who are all dedicated and passionate about the brand. Although I’m in a senior position, the focus on my development is just as strong. In addition to the Clarks training and development plans, I have the opportunity to take part in some really useful external courses. I love being able to make sure that our brand aspirations are realised and I’m excited to see what the future holds.
