Job Description

What happens when two radically different worlds meet? Palm Angels is the reflection of Francesco Ragazzi’s mind and draws together the spirit of the skaters of L.A. with sartorial evolution and the accuracy of Italian industrial design. The merger of the two can only be deeply personal, as a dream coming to life. An underlying rebellious attitude works both ways: he sharpens streetwear while deranging and smearing the sartorial. Inside out, upside down. The purveyor of a counter-mainstream, Francesco is shaping a new attitude and new forms. A Palm Angels state of mind.MANINOur monumental office in Via Manin is where NGG was born.

First we assess the flexibility options FARFETCH provides and then we anonymously survey a statistically significant proportion of their employees to make sure FARFETCH is as flexible as they say they are. Our assessment is based on the six key elements of flexibility: location, hours, autonomy, benefits, role modelling and work-life balance.
