  • You will work with the Brand Partnership, Business Development and Account Management teams to explore opportunities to grow the most desirable stock
  • You will answer key business questions shedding light on stock and partner performances on an ad hoc basis as well as in support of weekly trade meetings

The FlexScore® is the result of a rigorous 2-step verification of a company’s flexibility

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.

We ask the hard questions so you don’t have to.
