Global role based in London
Hello, we’re SURI (Sustainable Rituals) — we’re on a mission to radically transform oral care for people and planet, with beautiful everyday essentials designed for life.
For like-minded individuals who already believe in the power of sustainable choices, we aim to create personal care products that are more sustainable, beautiful, and convenient alternatives. We seek to continually push the boundaries of what is possible and invite honest conversation on our collective journey.
Since launching our sustainable sonic toothbrush in 2022, we’ve delighted over 300k customers across the UK, Europe and US. In doing so, SURI has risen to become the highest-rated electric toothbrush on Trustpilot, while achieving B-Corp certification and securing listings in major US and UK retailers. As well as garnering widespread media attention, SURI has also picked up numerous prestigious industry awards including The Grocer Startup of the Year, Red Dot Design Award, and the Marie Claire Sustainability Award.
We have a close-knit team of experts with strong attention to detail and willingness to think differently. We’re now looking for someone to bolster our NPD team and support the efficient, effective and on time delivery of a pipeline of exciting innovations to market.

This is a hands-on entry-level role at a fast-growing, purpose-driven brand. You’ll gain end-to-end experience—from initial concept to shelf—in a fast-paced environment where you can make a real impact from day one.
