The White Company

Last week, we had the pleasure of celebrating Malti, our Senior Area Visual Merchandising Manager, on her incredible 20 year anniversary at The White Company!   Malti first joined us as a Sales Advisor at our Marylebone store in 2005 before transitioning to our Visual Merchandising team, where she has become an invaluable member. Her dedication and creativity have been instrumental in shaping our brand’s in-store experience.   To mark this milestone, Malti spent the afternoon celebrating with the rest of the VM team, enjoying a well deserved lunch together. It was a wonderful moment to reflect on her journey and contributions over the years.   Congratulations, Malti, and thank you for 20 fantastic years! If you are interested in joining our VM team, we'd love to hear from you. https://lnkd.in/ewRSPrcu

Ever had a night’s sleep so good it felt like a work of art? The kind where you wake up feeling like you’ve been handcrafted back to life. Sleep is something we all do – every night. But great sleep? A different story. And behind that exceptional rest is something meticulously designed, carefully considered, and beautifully made. Which is why I still love this piece of work we created for The White Company. (Watch with the sound on) A film about the craft, care, and obsession that goes into making their beds. Because sleep isn’t just sleep. It’s restoration. It’s clarity. It’s creativity. So on World Sleep Day (who knew)... This is my reminder to you. To appreciate the things that help us sleep better. Whether an awesome mattress... An idea-soaked bath... Or your phone, left to its own devices – far away from lights out. But that's enough pillow talk. I need to get from A... to ZZZzzzzz's. ... What’s one thing that makes all the difference to your sleep? ... And if you like this video. Please share it. I don't ask often. But sometimes I need to show people what I actually do : ) _ #WorldSleepDay #VideoProduction

Last week, our wonderful Cambridge team got together for a private screening of The Devil Wears Prada at their local Everyman Cinema. It was the perfect mix of celebration and inspiration, not just a belated Christmas get together, but also a chance to share our latest strategy and exciting plans for the future in a fun and engaging way.   Our Store Manager, Lee, summed up the evening perfectly: 'A fantastic celebration of all the success of peak and an exciting glimpse into the future; all topped off with a martini on the sofa!'   Our people are at the heart of everything we do, and creating moments like this allows our teams to step away from the shop floor, celebrate successes, align on our vision, and strengthen their bond as a team.   If you're interested in being a part of our Retail team, then take a look at our current openings on our careers website here: https://lnkd.in/dqAJvgrM

Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a special breakfast at our Head Office in support of the Brilliant Breakfast campaign. Throughout March, across our stores, Contact Centre, and Head Office, we are proud to continue supporting our charity partner, The King’s Trust, in raising vital funds and awareness to help transform the lives of young women. As the smell of freshly brewed coffee filled the room and the first bites of warm pastries were shared, our teams came together for a morning of connection and conversation. Over a delicious breakfast, we settled in for an inspiring panel discussion with our CEO, Paula, alongside Julia, from The King's Trust and Carrissa, a charity ambassador. They shared powerful stories of resilience and opportunity, highlighting how The King’s Trust equips young women with the skills, confidence, and support to build their futures - including launching their own businesses. A highlight of the morning was Carrissa’s inspiring success story. With the support of The King’s Trust, she founded her business, Keep Me Curvy, turning her vision into reality. A huge thank you to everyone who attended. It was a fantastic morning to get our teams together, show our support and raise money for an incredible cause.

Even in our busiest periods, finding ways to connect as a team makes all the difference. Recently, our People Team brought a little extra joy to the office with a TWC Bake Off, spanning a six-week celebration of homemade treats and friendly competition. From pinecone brownies to New York-style cookies, our bakers truly delivered!   Of course, every competition must have a winner. We caught up with Issy, our crowned Bake Off champion, to learn more about her show-stopping creation.   "It was so much fun to take part in the TWC Bake Off! Everyone put in so much effort, and I really enjoyed making my chosen bakes. I created two NYC-style cookie flavours: Terry’s Chocolate Orange and White Chocolate Gingerbread. Having experimented with different cookie flavours for a while, I stuck to something I felt confident in. I’m glad everyone enjoyed them and will certainly be putting my apron to good use!"   A great reminder of the importance of stepping away from our desks, taking a break, and making time for creativity and connection.
