We’re constantly developing our brand, our product and the way we work with our team and we want you to be a part of this constant change and growth.

We have a flat structure where everyone is responsible for themselves, their stores and their jobs.

We expect our team to merchandise, to manage customer service online and offline in stores, to clean, to want to learn more about product design, distribution and development and we want you to work your ass off when you’re with us. In short, there is no task too big or too small for anyone at Nic Harry.

We believe that everyone has the right to learn more and be more.

We place the customer and their experience at the centre of our business. This means that you need to love meeting people, talking to people and helping people solve problems.

We also talk to people on many platforms and in different ways. We have real-time help on our website, we use Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and email to make sales and create customers.

In Store and Online Systems

We expect all team members to be familiar with the Nic Harry systems and processes. Training will be provided where there are shortfalls in skill or experience. Once you have been trained, your good judgement is expected at all times.

We operate on Facebook and Instagram and would love for the incoming team members to have a good command of growing a community.
