"Taking Shape is such a fabulous place to work. The Tribe are amazing! People really are at the heart of everything we do. I love what I do, but I love who I do it with even more because of the people here. It gives me such a sense of pride to see the difference we make in our customers lives. "

"It’s hard for me to put into words why I love working for Taking Shape! I feel so lucky to work for a company that accepts me for who I am. As a plus sized woman, the thought of shopping used to scare me – however you’d never think that today! Taking Shape has not only taught me to embrace my curves, but it has also given me a platform to teach other women to love and embrace themselves as they are. This is the biggest reward for me. The ability to change the lives of women and actually make an impact on them is my biggest achievement to date. Taking Shape is not just a job, to me it is a family. "

"I’ve been amazed to see how the company has grown and developed over the 17 years I have been working at Taking Shape. Each day presents me new challenges and keeps me on my toes, but delivering the best product we can to our customers is the goal. Getting to work with a great team to achieve this is a bonus for me!"

"From the bottom of my heart, Taking Shape is the BEST company I’ve ever worked for. I’ve been here for almost 10 years and it’s given me so much opportunity to grow as a person and develop my skills to be a great leader for my team. I’m so thankful and grateful for all the trust and confidence that Taking Shape have given me to do my role in the warehouse."

"Working at Taking Shape is a delight. Being able to work alongside such inspirational and amazing women is what I truly love. Being able to share and celebrate each other’s successes is another thing I cherish about this business. I absolutely love being in a store, when a customer singles me out to talk about the service one of the team have delivered – this makes me so proud. We support and encourage one another – inspire and motivate one another. There is also someone to lend a helping hand, a word of advice or celebrate the good times. Most importantly, lifelong friendships are formed "
