Business Controller, SEAO

At Fresh, we create beauty products that perform with experiences that transform. Born in Boston, Raised in New York. What began as a small collection in a neighborhood shop by our founders Lev & Alina, has evolved into a full lifestyle line of skincare, lip care, body care, and fragrance sold all over the world. The sensoriality of our products—their textures and scents—sets us apart. It’s this combination of high efficacy and amazing sensations that we’re known for, and why those who know us love us. Lev says fresh creates products people don’t know they need—and then can’t live without. Our founders still work with the brand every day to fulfill their original dream of making beauty that performs and transforms. We are driven by our never complacent indie spirit where the sky's the limit. This approach is initiated by Lev and Alina and lived by the entire organization. Our boundless curiosity fuels our search for the extraordinary, whether it’s a moment of pleasure in nature or an experience of generosity in our shops. Where fresh goes, beauty follows. We are pioneers—in product innovation, in experience, in culture, and in process. We believe that fresh is more than what it sells; it’s the emotional connection to the brand that we call the sixth sense. It’s the heartfelt experience we craft for our people and our guests.
