KYM is redefining what luxury means in the modern world.

 

We’re more than a destination for pre-owned designer fashion — we’re a movement built on authenticity, sustainability, and timeless style. From rare, iconic handbags to one-of-a-kind ready-to-wear, our curated collections connect people with the pieces they love, while championing mindful consumption in an age of fast fashion.

 

KYM is a brand under RM365 Group — an international company with operations in the UK, France, and the Netherlands. Our group focuses on aesthetic beauty and high-end luxury, with a strong presence across the European market. In 2024, RM365 Group generated over £20 million in total revenue, including more than £6 million from the France market.

 

Built on a foundation of trust, quality, and purpose, KYM is growing quickly across the UK, France, and beyond. As we expand our global reach, we’re scaling our team with curious, driven, and creative people who want to make an impact — not just in fashion, but in shaping the future of circular luxury retail.

 

Join a fast-paced, collaborative environment where creativity meets commercial ambition. Every role at KYM plays a direct part in our mission: to inspire a more conscious approach to luxury, empowering individuals to express their style without compromise. You’ll work alongside passionate colleagues across departments and locations, and with senior leadership, to bring our vision to life and deliver exceptional experiences for our customers.
