Remote (UK based)

We've partnered with the exciting menswear clothing brand, Built Different, to find a Head of Operations who can lead operations as they scale.

Company Overview

At Built Different, we are driven by a singular mission : to empower plus-size men with high-quality clothing that celebrates their unique style and physique.

Our journey began when Mark, our CEO, recognized a glaring gap in the market for fashionable and comfortable clothing designed specifically for larger men.

In many retail outlets, plus-size men often struggle to find clothing that fits well and makes them feel confident. Frustrated by the lack of options available, Mark decided to take matters into his own hands. He envisioned a brand that not only offered stylish apparel but also embraced the diverse shapes and sizes of men.

Our commitment to inclusivity and quality craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do. From our meticulously designed garments to our customer-centric approach, every aspect of Built Different reflects our dedication to serving the needs of our community.

We’re scaling rapidly (we’ve secured a spot on the FEBE growth list) and are committed to continuing to innovate, evolve, and expand our offerings to ensure that every man can embrace his unique identity with pride. At Built Different, we're not just selling clothing – we're empowering a community.
