Develop our people and your career

Despite our rapid and ongoing growth, we’re still a family-run, independent business – and proud of it. It’s evident in our ethos, our thriving family culture and the way we respect and reward every single member of the Wren team, from the day they join us.

Our HR People and Performance team is the driving force of everything from initial attraction and engagement to learning and development initiatives; setting policies and procedures to collaborating with colleagues to put their ideas into action, too.

You might be a seasoned HR professional or eager to start a career in this field – whichever, you’ll play a vital role in shaping how our people feel about working with us now and in the future.

BENEFITS

Employee discount

All employees and their friends and family are offered a discount after a year’s service.

Annual leave

You’ll get up to 25 days of annual leave each year plus eight bank holidays. As the department that drives our employee benefits, no one understands work-life balance like us!

Employee wellbeing

Every employee can benefit from our Employee Assistance Programme, a free, confidential counselling service.

Career progression

Many of our management team have worked their way up the career ladder - you’ll have all the tools to follow them.

Training and qualifications

We’ve funded management and industry qualifications, such as CIPD, for many of our team to help them progress their careers to the next level.

Free onsite gym

Our fully equipped gym - including yoga studio and weight-lifting area - is free for all our employees to use.

Identifying and nurturing talent

We welcome people of all ages and from all walks of life – we simply look for that spark that lets us know they’ll be a great fit here. Then, from our award-winning candidate onboarding experience to our industry-leading learning and development programmes, we enable people with potential to thrive.

Whatever your role in our HR team, you’ll play your part in ensuring that our people-focused policies continue to take centre stage.

Caring about more than careers

We’re a business that cares about its people at every level. We don’t just develop clear career progression plans strengthened by our policy of promotion from within. We’ve created a culture where outstanding workplace facilities are complemented by a comprehensive benefits package, from health and wellness to subsidised meals and transport. It’s why our own people voted us the Best Place to Work in UK Retail on Indeed in both 2019 and 2020.

As our business continues to grow, you’ll help to ensure that we keep pace with the evolving needs of our people so that they continue to feel supported and valued.

Empowering engagement

As we look forward to an exciting new phase of business expansion in the UK and USA, we want every member of the Wren family to feel inspired, enthusiastic and engaged in the journey ahead. There will be opportunities to learn new skills, take new paths and realise new ambitions.

Our HR team will be at the heart of ensuring all of our people feel empowered to make their own impact on the future of our business. Because we know that every person here has their part to play.
