Agenda-setting intelligence, analysis and advice for the global fashion community.
LONDON, United Kingdom — It's that time of year again. Back from holidays that took us all over the world to visit friends and family in Colombia to California, Sri Lanka to Switzerland, the BoF team is recharged and ready for the new year.
To achieve our ambitions for 2016, we are looking to grow the BoF team across content, technology, growth marketing, account management and sales.
We have often found that the best way to find candidates that fit into our international group of fashion nerds — who have studied business, law, engineering, classics, literature and science — is to hire from within our own community.
Please visit our BoF Careers page to see all of the available vacancies for London-based roles.
We look forward to expanding upon our position as the definitive resource for the global fashion community. Happy New Year everyone!
