Want to experience the magic of leading the development of a new cosmetic category, whilst making a huge positive impact on the world?
Why join the Tirtyl Team? Tirtyl are a purpose-led start-up creating innovative "Just-Add-Water" products that eliminate plastic waste and reduce emissions from everyday items we consume at home.
We're not just any other consumer goods brand, we're on a mission to make conscious consumption mainstream, and tackle the global plastic waste crisis with products and profits that "unwaste".
Our suite of products (some of which are the first of their kind in the world) have taken the Australian and North American markets by storm. Since launching our first product, a zero-waste hand soap in Jan 2021, we've achieved multi-million dollar revenues and profitability within 18 months. We've also raised venture capital from a world-class fund and donated 2% of sales to social impact initiatives that have resulted in millions of ocean-bound plastic bottles being collected from developing countries.
In short, we're a fast-growing business making a serious splash!
To get to the next stage of audacious growth, we need the most ambitious talent. That's where you come in…
