Company mission

To transform skincare expectations with cutting-edge technologies and a results-driven approach to innovation.

Our take

Medik8 was started at a time when natural skincare brands began to challenge the traditional skincare market. Founder, Elliot Isaacs, used his experience in biochemistry to create products backed by science.

As the pioneers of the globally-renowned CSA philosophy - which champions vitamin C and sunscreen by day, and vitamin A at night - Medik8 has received a lot of attention in the press. It has been featured in the likes of Elle, Vogue, and Stylist.

The company has continued to expand its list of products as it raises brand awareness and expands its operations, with continued innovation and global expansion likely the company's focus moving forwards.

Company values

  • Team work - True team work. A common goal. United front. Feel part of something bigger than yourself. Feel what its like to have amazing colleagues value the ethics and skills you share with them. Be a go-giver
  • Problem solving - Thinking philosophically, the ability to solve problems quickly and elegantly is what gives us the edge over our competitors. Same is true of people. We expect Medik8 People to think clearly and be open to ideas & experience
  • Precision - 'Measure twice, cut once'. Life is so much easier for customers, suppliers, your colleagues and yourselves when things are done with precision and accuracy
  • Thinking high-level - Clarity of purpose. Focus on the objective. Politics is a waste of energy. Thinking at the high level means you don't let petty things get in the way of the big picture
  • Creativity - They say don't re-invent the wheel! Why? You can make it lighter, stronger, safer, more reliable, better to look at. You can design out cost and source more ethically. In fact, there is quite a lot you can do to improve the wheel
  • Self-starting attitude - You are the type of person who gets on with stuff without micro-managing. Yet have the presence of mind not to just jump headlong into things without checking. That balance is the key to becoming a Medik8 star
