Mission Our purpose is to touch and enhance lives through the joy that is Krispy Kreme with our mission is to be the most loved sweet treat brand.

Description If you've heard of doughnuts, you've probably heard of Krispy Kreme. We started making them in the USA way back in 1937, but it wasn't until 2003 that we arrived in the UK with one humble little outlet. Ok, so it was in Harrods but it was still only one.

We're famous for our amazing doughnuts, but did you know that every Krispy Kreme doughnut is hand checked and our decorated range are always hand filled by one of our awesome team? And whether you buy your Krispy Kreme doughnuts from a Krispy Kreme store, one of our retail partners, have your doughnuts delivered or buy on the Krispy Kreme website, your doughnuts are always made fresh daily!

We have had some phenomenal growth and we now have over 2000 employees and over 120 stores covering across both the UK & Ireland and we are not stopping now!

Our online presence and our digital GEN8 cabinets in supermarkets and service stations have grown and we continue to have ambitious growth plans over the next few years. To meet our plans, we're going to need even more passionate, positive people who want to spread some Krispy Kreme joy!

At least once a year, the whole support office team leave their laptops at home and spend the day out in operations. The plan is to help our operations teams across retail, manufacturing, and logistics in the lead up to our busiest times throughout the year, most recently being Halloween. We call this activity, “helping hands”. Everyone from the people and culture team to the marketing and finance team as well as the whole of operations, share the same cultures. Our Leadership Mix consists of 12 key ingredients, one of which is, as a business, we don’t take ourselves too seriously and although we are there to support, during our helping hands days out… we have a lot of fun doing so! After all, spreading joy and creating smiles is what we are all about. ...Show more

WHAT’S A TYPICAL DAY LIKE? It’s completely different from one day to the next so there’s nothing typical about my days! I can go from advising on ER/HR related matters to Performance and Development conversations to recruitment to looking at the overall People strategy of the function all in one day. One thing that is the same every day is my role in making sure I’m the cultural ambassador for Krispy Kreme. WHY KRISPY KREME – WHAT’S THE BEST PART TO WORKING HERE? Everyone will say free doughnuts I’m sure but for me it’s about working for a company that has been built from the ground up and feeling like you can make a huge difference very quickly. WHAT’S THE CULTURE IN THE COMPANY LIKE? The culture feels like we are a family. We all strive together to make Krispy Kreme as successful as possible. We are all about giving smiles to people and it’s hard not to smile when you’re talking about doughnuts right? ...Show more
