Our story started in the swinging sixties with two fresh-thinking and bold art and design students who created popping graphic prints and patterns and applied to stationary, wrap and cards. Several decades later, the creative spirit that inspired the start of Paperchase is still going strong at our Paperchase Studios.

Life doesn’t start and end at work, and everyone has their own way of doing things. Ensuring we all have a good work-life balance is key to our mission of spreading a little joy every day, which is why we nurture flexibility and autonomy, so you can do your work your way.

When it comes to office hours for our teams in the Support Office, we have a hybrid working model. Each week, you choose which two days you spend at our colourful Paperchase Studio in Farrington, and on other days, you can work from home (or a coffee shop, or the zoo – it’s your call!).

For our colleagues within our retail stores, we offer a wide variety of contractual hours, that will enable you to find something to suit your individual lifestyle, helping you work around your personal life.
