About Us

Orveon is a new kind of beauty company launched in December 2021 as the result of acquiring three unique brands - bareMinerals, BUXOM, and Laura Mercier. With 1,600 employees in 22 countries, we're a truly global business with a presence in all key geographies. Our headquarters are in New York, with additional locations in major cities worldwide. We are backed by Advent International, one of the world's largest and most successful private equity firms, well known for their investments in Lululemon and Olaplex.

We are embarking on a powerful shift: To change how the world thinks about beauty. We are a collective of premium and prestige beauty brands committed to stark honesty, co-creation, and making a sustainable cultural impact. We are looking for the best talent to join us on that journey. Let's face forward together!

About bareMinerals

We believe makeup and skincare should not only make you look good but should also be good for your skin. So clean minerals have always been the heart and soul of every bareMinerals product. They always will be. Ever since we started the beauty revolution with our bestselling mineral foundation in 1995.

About the Role

We formulate our products with purity in mind, so you can feel good about everything we do. bareMinerals is for all people, of all skin types, of all ages. Everyone is welcome in our family.

We are part of the Orveon Group, and in joining bareMinerals you will not only receive innovative and artistry led training, our award winning products and the chance to be part of a fast-growing brand - you join an incredible group network of brands, where developing our people is at the heart of our business.

Primary Responsibilities

Your enthusiasm and passion will shine through to the customer, as you share your extensive product knowledge and exceptional customer service, which is at the heart of all that bareMinerals stands for. You will connect with your customer in meaningful ways because we've never been content with just making them look beautiful - we want to make them feel beautiful. You'll love creating the bareMinerals signature look and sharing all the on-counter services and events that we offer.

We'll provide you with the training and tools you need to ensure you can share your passion for our brand, and we'll empower you to be driven in achieving your own sales and striving toward your targets. You'll always be ready to learn new skills to further your abilities and creativity. In return, you'll be highly self-motivated, sales driven and enthusiastic. The bareMinerals counter gets busy during peak times so we expect you to be able to be reactive as well as proactive and go out of your way to exceed your goals.
