A Claire's store can't run itself. Even with teams as passionate, talented and knowledgeable as ours. That's where our European Head Office comes in. From the people who discover our great products through to those that get the right ones to the right store at the right time, there's a team here at our European Head Office in Birmingham supporting them.

The European team support our operations throughout Europe, ensuring that the high-quality approach that we have for Buying and Merchandising, Retail Operations, Distribution and Logistics, HR, IT and Finance (among others) is as high in Madrid as it is in Manchester.

Birmingham's also home to our UK and Ireland Zone Office. This small team manage certain specific aspects of retail support specifically for the UK and Ireland (or Zone 1 as we call it internally). These departments include Retail HR, Property and Store Operations.

If you want a better insight into what sort of people work here, don't forget to look at our ‘Meet some retail support people' section. If you'd like an insight into what life outside of work could be like we have created a ‘Living in Birmingham' page for you.
