Sorry Thanks I Love You is an internationally recognised concept store, and we’re looking for some of the best people in Sydney to join our retail team on a full time, part time and casual basis. If you love experimenting, working in a small but mighty team, and are looking for a wage that comes with a few special extras, we’d like to hear from you.

ABOUT US

Sorry Thanks I Love You is a multidimensional project that exists to nurture and inspire via a mash-up of fashion, design and art delivered through a range of experimental spaces.
With a culture of excellence and a focus on ideas through experimentation and exploration, our foundation is centered around story-telling and community-building. Provocative events and experiences are at the heart of our concept: from free weekly yoga in store after dark, to pioneering Sydney’s first fashion festival.

Our flagship space is located across more than 500 square metres in the heart of the CBD and we work with brands like Comme Des Garçons, Issey Miyake, Maison Margiela and Dinosaur Designs among many others. It’s a world-class curation that has seen us singled out by the best media in the world.
Our Paddington boutique recently opened at the long-awaited new development The Olympia, alongside London’s cult Palomar restaurant, a sleek rooftop bar, and Australia’s first 25hours hotel.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We have a culture of nurturing our team over the longer term and developing their careers along their ideal trajectory. For this reason even our casual team members tend to stay with us for years rather than months, and we don’t hire often.

So this is a rare opportunity to join a small and ambitious team committed to community, contrarianism and experimentation.
