Job Description:
Jimmy Fairly was born with a need to revolutionise the optical industry. Founded in 2010 by Antonin Chartier, a 23-year-old psychology student with a passion for entrepreneurship, Chartier’s concept was simple: quality glasses, fair prices, and a positive social impact.
Now with over 100 stores across Europe and the UK, Jimmy Fairly is successfully bringing back great style and a smile to the optical world. Great style is achieved by dropping on-trend designs every 6 weeks, with a short-circuit manufacturing process that does not compromise on quality or our planet.
