Job description
Character.com..... Whether your favourites are Paw Patrol or Peppa Pig, Harry Potter or Minecraft, Star Wars or Bluey, Character.com is the one-stop shop for all character-based clothing for kids and adults.
Our happy clothes inspire kids, small and big, to express their unique identity. Our mission is to produce clothes that kids feel comfortable wearing, both literally and in themselves, so that whenever they put on our clothing, they’re guaranteed to wear a smile!
