About The Company
Since our very first day in 1997, our purpose has been to enable our customers to feel and look their best by offering them the world’s best line-up of beauty and skin-care brands (+ more), coupled with exceptional service. Fast forward to today, and we have over 5,000 MECCA team members across 100+ retail stores throughout Australia and New Zealand, a rapidly growing online business, two Distribution Centres, and a bustling Support Centre in the heart of Melbourne working to deliver on our purpose every single day. Our ongoing growth is fuelled by opening new stores and reaching new customers, launching new products, and harnessing the latest technology to constantly innovate and evolve our concepts, experiences, and service offerings. Whether you join MECCA in one of our Retail stores, our Support Centre or our Distribution Centre (DC), you will be an integral part of the MECCA family. Our Retail Store teams are known for their energy, passion and expertise; bringing MECCA to life and helping us deliver on our purpose across four unique concepts – MECCA Cosmetica, MECCA Maxima, MECCA and our online stores (mecca.com.au and meccabeauty.co.nz). Working in our Support Centre will give you the opportunity to be part of high-impact, cross-functional projects, where you will get to immerse yourself in cutting-edge technologies and market-leading innovations. Not only do we work with over 150 of the best global beauty brands, we also develop, produce and distribute MECCA’s very own signature line of products. From supply chain to digital design, from software development to strategy, and everything in between, we are looking for diverse people from all backgrounds to continually challenge our way of thinking. Last but certainly not least, our rapidly expanding DC teams are the backbone of our operations and are key to the delivery of a seamless customer experience through online fulfillment and ensuring our stores have the right products at the right time.
