We have found that people who do really well at innocent tend to have strengths in some specific areas. We look for evidence of these at every stage of our recruitment process from CV screening to the final meeting with one of our chief squeezers.

We will also test the more specific skills that will  make you great at the job you are applying for. These will vary from role to role and you will probably be able to pick most of them out of the job description on this website if you look closely.

Some of the key areas that we test in everyone who comes to interview are:

Has the smarts – At innocent we look for people who can take on board all sorts of complex information, process it quickly and present it back in a clear and simple way. We look for people who are comfortable navigating their way through ambiguous situations and come up with high quality solutions.

Great leadership – These people excel in setting and communicating clear direction. These are individuals who identify opportunities for improvement and lead their team through the ups and downs that follow. This is by no means the preserve of our managers - everyone shares in the responsibility from day one.

Delivers results – These people consistently deliver outstanding results themselves and through others. They get excited by the 'F' in FMCG* and their work raises the standard of what we know to be possible. They are tenacious in the face of obstacles and rarely take no for an answer.

* FMCG = Fast Moving Consumer Goods. It's a posh name for the industry we're in.

Raises their game – People who raise their game are curious and interested, always searching for ways to be better versions of themselves both at home and work. These people are the first to give and receive constructive feedback, adapting and learning quickly to be even more successful next time.

Lives the values – So if you've ticked all the boxes so far that's great, now here's the bottom line. There are plenty of ways of getting things done but there are five qualities that we'll never compromise on at innocent. The final must haves are a commitment to the values that are central to our business - remaining natural, responsible, commercial, entrepreneurial and generous whether with our drinkers, customers, suppliers or each other. Living these five values is an essential part of working with innocent.
