About this employer

KJ Beckett is a leading retailer of luxury accessories for men. Based in the historical city of Bath, England, where fashion and style are paramount! We strive to offer customers an amazing and unique shopping experience. In the summer of 2003, three brothers discussed the difficulty they had when they were looking for less ordinary, more imaginative, men's accessories. They had observed, if one were to enter any designer men's clothes store, they could find a dazzling range of unusual shirts or a superb selection of fine and unique shoes - but to find cool belts for men or funky men's wallets was much trickier! Sparse offerings of interesting men's accessories meant the conventional black leather belt or wallet always seemed to end up being purchased.
