Job description

High Wycombe, office-based 2-3 days per week

Mint Velvet began when founders Liz Houghton and Lisa Agar-Rea set out to create an unfailingly chic collection of contemporary, great quality staples and elevated fits that they felt were missing from their wardrobes. Feeling frustrated that they couldn’t find anything they wanted to wear, or the great customer service they craved, they started fusing relaxed comfort with glamorous yet wearable fashion trends. Relaxed Glamour was born.

As collaborative creatives, we take untold pride in our work, designing with heart and soul. We want to be a force for good and are committed to becoming a more circular and responsible business, from the fabrics we choose to our considered processes. We are an agile and growing business, and we work hard to create an environment which allows for growth and progression, balanced with the support and flexibility needed to meet the challenge of a high-performance culture.

Our leadership teams and founders sit amongst the teams and encourage a culture of balance and passion. MV is a very special place, and our values are anchored by three main pillars: people, planet, and community.

As a Graduate Finance Assistant at Mint Velvet, you will:

• Work closely with functions across the business, providing financial support and helping to deliver strategic objectives.
• Experience management accounts, commercial finance, and transactional finance.

To join our vibrant and fast-growing business...

• You will consistently role model our Mint Velvet brand values.

‘Entrepreneurial Spirit’ - We're ambitious and never want to stand still; our teams are encouraged to have a strong sense of ownership for their roles - sharing a growth mindset and seeing the opportunities available to us.

‘Passion & Drive’ - We care about what we do and want the business to be the best it can be, so we look for people who are tenacious, optimistic, and positive. We encourage our teams to tackle challenges with an 'I get to do this', not an 'I have to do this' approach.

‘Courage & Resilience’ - Our business operates on a culture of honesty - knowing people trust you when you speak the truth and stand up for what you think is right. We know that only by taking smart risks can we drive real change.

‘Collaborative’ - We believe a strong team achieves more than a team of strong individuals ever will. We work hard to create a culture where everyone feels included - sharing information and ideas openly, feeding back candidly and practicing honesty, always with deep kindness.

‘With Soul’ - We believe that doing business ethically matters. We are never too formal, always human, warm, and personal - knowing empathy and kindness go a long way.

You'll be rewarded with:

• Competitive starting salary and great career prospects in a fast-paced and growing business
• 25 days holiday, plus bank holidays and a day off on your birthday
• Company-funded private health insurance and access to Smart Health
• Life assurance
• Discretionary bonus scheme
• 50% staff discount
• Study Support
• Interest-free Season ticket loan
• Summer hours - 3pm finishes every Friday throughout June, July & August
• Bespoke induction support and ongoing development to help you thrive in your new role
• A welcoming and inspiring work-environment - take advantage of Yoga classes, social activities, an early finish on pay day and more
