    Brand and Operations ManagerBella + Frank
    Brighton, United KingdomFull Time
    Eponymous brand, Bella and Frank, is a Brighton-based sustainable fashion brand which is leading its initiatives through the kidswear market. Our goal is to continuously work towards reducing our environmental impact through intensive research and development into better ways to produce and source. We are also dedicated to consumer-side programmes that educate and encourage our costumers towards circularity and environmental awareness. Our leading initiative under this agenda is our Returns Scheme, which seeks to extend the life cycle of kids clothes, which is notoriously short.
