Aesop manufactures and retails vegan personal care products (skincare, body care, hair care, fragrance) across 1,001–5,000 employees, headquartered in Melbourne with offices in London, New York, Paris, Tokyo, and Hong Kong. The hiring profile is heavily skewed toward sales (140 roles) and retail operations, with active expansion in store openings and refurbishments across 20+ countries — a footprint that creates inventory and brand-consistency challenges across digital and physical channels.
