The posting

At Sephora, beauty is about feeling seen, valued, and empowered, individually and collectively. It is connecting deeply with others, celebrating diversity and inclusivity, unlocking your potential and making a difference every day. Together, we belong to something beautiful.

Sephora SEA’s omni channel business spans over 8 countries (Australia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand) with 100+ stores and boasts some global flagships such as ION and Raffles City in Singapore, F88 in Kuala Lumpur and Pitt Street in Sydney. Sephora SEA is experiencing rapid growth in the region with new store openings and business channels (i.e., Click and collect and marketplace).

Senior Legal Counsel, SEAO

Sephora, the world’s leading prestige beauty retailer and part of the LVMH Group, is seeking a commercially minded and highly collaborative Senior Legal Counsel to join our Legal team in Singapore. Sephora Southeast Asia and Oceania serves customers across a diverse and fast-growing region through a compelling omni-channel beauty experience, combining retail, digital, technology, and expert service.
