Hotel Chocolat has built a strong position as the UK’s favourite premium chocolate brand.

We’re multi-category, multi-channel, and multi territory, always with the customer, and our direct connection with them, at the heart. Our mission is to make people happy through chocolate. Customer, colleagues, cacao farmers and suppliers can all benefit from the success we create together.

We are on the lookout for a Junior UX Researcher to join our eCommerce Team on a permanent basis.

This is an ideal role if you are looking to develop your career in a truly cross-functional eCommerce function.

You will also support the implementation of tests, ensuring that they are delivered quickly and to a high standard, with the autonomy and encouragement to recommend improvements.

Working closely with your colleagues in the Marketing, Brand Centre, Digital and Design teams, you will share insights and knowledge to ensure continual customer benefit.

Here at Hotel Chocolat, we've adopted a hybrid working pattern where appropriate.
