Work at Houdini
At Houdini, every day is a chance to flip the script - to be part of the solution rather than the problem, to take your passions seriously, to challenge the norm of the industry, to create the best imaginable products and to enjoy testing it in the great outdoors. Together with an odd band of scientists, artists, designers and athletes, we’re pushing the boundaries of how outdoor clothing is made.
Together with our customers, we are recycling, renting, repairing and reusing our way to a new, sustainable outdoor industry. Are we the biggest outdoor company? Far from. We don't aim to be the biggest. We only aim to be the best. If you would like to send in your resume, email us at work@houdinisportswear.com.
