Headquartered in Boulogne-Billancourt, Île-de-France, France, Sephora was founded in 1969 and is the foremost retailer of perfume and cosmetics in France, as well as one of the leading beauty retailers around the world. Sephora’s founder, Dominique Mandonnaud, fashioned its name by combining the name of Moses’ wife Zipporah, who was noted for her beauty, and "sephos," or “pretty” in ancient Greek.

The mission of Sephora is to keep beauty in its DNA. The company believes beauty is defined individually and celebrates bold choices in life and beauty alike. Sephora has developed a revolutionary beauty-retail concept, defined by an open-sell and unique environment with an ever-increasing assortment of products from curated brands from emerging favorites, indie darlings, and trusted classics. Owned by the world-renowned Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy (LVMH), the company has built a reputation for being a pioneer in the beauty industry through its unsurpassed range of products, exemplary service from beauty experts, and the dynamic shopping experiences it creates for customers. Sephora operates more than 1,000 stores throughout Europe, Asia, North America, and the Middle East.

As an employer, Sephora "lives, breathes, and acts" its values, which include balance, expertise, initiative, innovation, passion, respect for all, and teamwork. Employment opportunities with the company are manifold and include broad fields beyond fashion & beauty, such as marketing, accounting & finance, education & training, HR & recruiting, retail, and more. Flexible jobs offered by Sephora in the past include part-time, seasonal, temporary, and freelance jobs.
