About the Job

Our background and your main purpose…

Founded in 2016 by makeup artist and entrepreneur Aimee Connolly, Sculpted by Aimee is an Irish-born beauty brand with a global outlook. After earning a degree in business and building a loyal client base as a makeup artist, Aimee identified a gap in the market for products that were both high-performance and easy to use. Sculpted was launched to bridge that gap without ever compromising on results.
At our core is a commitment to empowering our community with multitasking, user-friendly products designed to deliver effortless, radiant results in five minutes or less. We believe beauty is better when everyone’s in on it, creating products that enhance natural features, blend seamlessly, and fit into the real lives of busy modern women. Our philosophy is simple: beauty for every age, at every stage.

The brand is now stocked in leading retailers including Boots and Selfridges UK, with a strong e-commerce presence serving customers in over 68 countries. Our omni-channel footprint spans more than 500 retail doors across eight markets, alongside four flagship stores in the UK and Ireland.
Our portfolio includes over 140 makeup, skincare and body products, all Leaping Bunny certified and recognised with more than 40 industry awards. Skincare is now our fastest-growing category, driven by a commitment to innovation, advanced formulation, and best-in-class performance. Developed and made in South Korea (the global leader in skincare innovation) our skincare range reflects our dedication to efficacy, quality and continuous improvement.
With over 100 foundation shades and finishes across our complexion range, we are committed to celebrating real skin and championing minimal retouching across our campaigns and social platforms.
