Communications Executive Hair Care - Dyson (In-house)

Competitive salary • Dyson • United Kingdom - London Press Office

About us

Hair Care is the fastest growing category in Dyson history, last year selling 4.3 machines a minute.Today Dyson employs over 6,000 engineers, hair scientists and stylists globally to drive our engineering of different, authentic, and pioneering solutions for pro stylists and self-stylers alike.

In pioneering new technology, we continually challenge conventional thinking. The launch of the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer in 2016 brought much-needed innovation to the premium haircare sector, which had seen relatively little change since the electric handheld dryers of the 1960’s. The Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer — with its new format, acoustics, attachments, and air multiplier technology — revolutionized the category. With the addition of the Dyson AirwrapTM styler in 2018, the Dyson CorraleTM straightener in 2020, and never satisfied with past success, Dyson engineers are continuously striving to advance engineering, bringing people better ways to style hair more healthily, across all hair types.
