The Opportunity

We are looking for a Laravel specialist to join our API team to work on our Laravel API which powers all the experiences for customers at Adore Beauty. We have worked hard over the past few years to embrace our Headless customer experiences which means that our API is powering our App and Website today, and who knows what tomorrow will bring.

We have a small, but highly engaged team who are passionate about quality code that makes real impacts to our business. We provide the space for you to innovate, and leverage the Laravel eco system without any legacy systems to deal with - you provide the drive and ability to help build the future.

We have abstracted off all the devops by deploying Laravel to Vapor so you can focus on creating quality code which empowers the wider team to create amazing experiences for our customers.

Who are we?

Adore Beauty was founded in 2000 by Kate Morris and James Height in Melbourne, as Australia’s first beauty focused e-commerce website. Today, it is Australia’s number one pure play online beauty retailer, home to over 230 global and domestic brands and 11,000 products – some of which are available exclusively on Adore Beauty’s platform.

Adore Beauty has attracted and retained a large and active customer base, having grown over 278% over the past four years to more than 590,000 active customers today. Adore Beauty’s business model, through its integrated content, marketing and e-commerce offering, creates an incredibly strong value proposition for both brands and customers. This has delivered a successful track record in the acquisition and retention of customers.

Kate Morris, Adore Beauty’s Co-Founder and Executive Director says “My co-founder James and I created Adore Beauty in a garage in Melbourne with a clear purpose – to create an empowering beauty shopping experience that would make our customers feel confident and fabulous. Over many years, we grew carefully and profitably, slowly building trust with beauty brands and customers. Earning this trust has enabled Adore Beauty to build a growing base of loyal and passionate customers, which in turn has attracted an unparalleled brand range within the Australian market.”

As we have done for our first 20 years, we are focused on sustainable growth and building a high-quality business over the long term. We believe that by staying true to our customers, brands, values and vision, we can weather the challenges and take advantage of our opportunities as Adore Beauty embarks on its next phase of growth as an ASX-listed company.
