We create practical products designed to make everyday life easier—and feel lighter, literally.</p> <p>Launching Poppy & Peonies has been an incredible journey. It started when my daughter Poppy was born, and I realized my accessories no longer suited my new life as a mom. I wanted bags with pockets and smart organization that looked great—but also worked in a truly practical way. When I couldn’t find what I needed, I decided to make it myself. That’s how Poppy & Peonies began in 2015.</p> <p>Since then, we’ve grown from packing orders in my basement to appearing on Dragons’ Den, and now we’re expanding into new product categories while collaborating with exciting influencers and brands. It hasn’t always been easy, but thanks to our incredible community, we’ve never felt more supported or appreciated.</p> <p>We take our environmental responsibilities seriously and are committed to protecting both the planet and the animals that live on it. That’s why all of our bags are made with high-quality vegan leather, and our entire product line is vegan and cruelty-free, with PETA approval. We ship plastic-free and use a combination of recycled, compostable, and biodegradable materials to help reduce shipping waste. We’re always looking for ways to make our products and supply chain more sustainable and lower our carbon footprint.</p> <p>In the Inventory Planner role, you’ll lead forecasting, planning, and inventory strategy to ensure our most-loved products are available when customers want them.
