L’Oréal UK and Ireland: a vibrant and inclusive workplace

Emily Chiverton

HR Director, L’Oréal UK and Ireland

Are you looking for a workplace that values your skills and ambitions, promotes diversity, encourages inclusion and offers unparalleled career opportunities?

At L’Oréal UK and Ireland, we are, and always will be, committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. We know that environments in which every individual feels respected, valued and empowered to contribute their unique talents, unlock incredible potential.

L’Oréal was recently ranked, for the second year in a row, a top five company globally for diversity and inclusion in the FTSE D&I Index Top 100. We offer exciting opportunities from our Early Careers Programmes to graduate programmes for more experienced hires, and we believe that our greatest assets are our people and culture.

Diversity is a fundamental value

Diversity drives our success and we believe in being as diverse as the people we serve. By championing diversity in all its forms and varied perspectives, experiences and ideas can flourish. This approach helps us fuel innovation and empowers us to better meet consumers’ interests and needs.

We prioritise inclusivity in everything we do, from our advertising campaigns to recruitment efforts. We want to offer every person the best of beauty — for all skin and hair types, all genders, identities, ethnicities, cultures and ages. We believe in beauty without borders or barriers.

Inclusion is in our DNA

Do you want to work in an environment where you can genuinely be yourself, where your unique talents are celebrated, and your voice is heard? We are dedicated to fostering an inclusive work culture, motivating everyone to bring their whole selves to work. Our Employee Resource Groups provide safe spaces to connect with those who share similar interests, characteristics or backgrounds. They celebrate cultural moments and provide crucial feedback on how we can better support our colleagues.

Boundless opportunities for growth

Our dedication to DE&I drives us to seek out and nurture diverse talent, providing the support needed to help everyone thrive. As part of our Early Careers Programmes, we offer mentorship and networking opportunities as well as continuous learning. These resources are designed to equip our talent with the tools necessary for personal and professional growth.

We offer diverse career opportunities across many functions: from marketing, finance and data to digital, IT and beyond. Whether you are a creative visionary, a strategic mastermind or a numbers enthusiast — there is a place for you at L’Oréal.

Impact outside the workplace

We recognise the influence and power of our 37 global brands and support programmes through them that aim to address societal challenges, contributing to a more inclusive society: L’Oréal Paris’s Stand Up Against Street Harassment programme provides bystander intervention training, and Lancôme’s Write Her Future UK partnership with the National Literacy Trust aims to tackle poor literacy among women from disadvantaged backgrounds.

We are committed to growing skills and opportunities for young people. Our L’Oréal for Youth programme seeks to address youth unemployment and bridge the gap between school and the working world by providing and equipping young people, especially those from under-represented backgrounds, with key skills, information and support. In the UK alone, we offer over 250 work placements a year to help young people learn valuable skills and earn a living wage, in addition to running CV workshops and skills masterclasses throughout the country.
