Our mission is to support people to transform houses into their homes.
Lick is a community-driven decorating movement focused on inspiring and supporting people to confidently transform their homes, with our unique pigment-rich colours and high-quality products whilst respecting yours and our home: planet Earth.
Whether you're a keen decorator or you've never picked up a paintbrush, we've got all you need to get started.
Quality:
Quality is at the heart of Lick. From our high-quality range of paints, each designed for a flawless finish and long-lasting durability to our in-person and online consultation and decorating support services, and industry-leading formulations that provide the best decorating experience to our community, whether they’re first-time decorators, experienced DIYers or decorating professionals.
Colour Authority:
We are an innovatively colour-centric brand with an expertly curated range of 100 unique pigment-rich colours, all designed with colour psychology and real homes in mind. We’re here to support decorators through the whole process, from finding colour inspiration to the final selection process and styling their freshly decorated room with complementary colours.
Sustainability:
We consider people and the planet in every decision we make, from our made-to-order, zero-waste production process and water-based, trace VOC paint (fewer harmful chemicals and a more easily biodegradable end product) to our commitment to being B Corp™ certified, the eco-friendly materials we use to make our LickTools and our mess-free, Peel & Stick samples which contain 95% less plastic than traditional tester pots.
Our aim is for our community to feel confident in creating their dream home with respect to your and our home; planet Earth..

Community:
From day one, community has been at the heart of everything we do, setting ourselves a mission to create the largest engaged decorating community that feels inspired and supported.
Since launching in 2020, we’ve united over 1 million decorators, collaborated with over 3,000 creators to transform their homes and have actively featured the Lick community in everything from press, to brand awareness campaigns and brand partnerships.
Lick was founded in 2019 by Lucas London and Sam Bradley - both experienced startup entrepreneurs - targeting the $1trillion global home decor market.
We’re the fastest growing decorator brand, and since launching in 2020, we have expanded from Lick into:
We continually develop our product range, new sustainability initiatives, and grow our community of decorators. Successful campaigns such as the Heinz x Lick collaboration & Soho Home range, as well as our huge partnerships with Screwfix & diy.com are leading us in the right direction, and it’s really a very exciting time to be joining us on this journey!
Our office is located in Clapham and we are a hybrid working team who believes in the value of getting together offline and online. For this reason, we are focused on hiring candidates who can easily work in London. We see huge value in our team sharing an office together and strongly encourage everyone to use it as often as they can, and the minimum expectation is 2 days per week - one day will be set based on your department, and the other day is at your and your managers discretion.
Our team is collaborative - and friendly! We want to encourage relationship building and effective teamwork through both face to face and online interactions.
We are a team of incredible human beings, making Lick a very special place to work. We want to promote an environment where we can all truly be ourselves (on the good days and the bad) and make an authentic impact. Growing and thriving as individuals and achieving something very significant together.
We want it to be easy to openly discuss how you are feeling. We want it to be easy for you to do the things you know will help you thrive. We want you to own your mental health and wellbeing, and we want to ensure you feel supported in doing so - and we aim to provide you with the information and tools to empower you to do so.
People are at the centre of everything we do at Lick. We work hard to make sure that we're amplifying diverse voices externally within our amazing community of decorators. Equally, we are on a mission to make Lick a company where every member of our team feels they can truly be themselves and genuinely make an impact. We will continue to work on ways to be able to formally follow through on this commitment, such as our team led Lick Belonging Group, and using an individual approach for each team member.
Having launched in the last few years, our culture will continue to evolve just like everything else we do. To give you a sense of what to expect, we can confirm it's fast and very ambitious, with high expectations. We believe a great team can do great things and we work hard to ensure you have what you need to thrive and make a real impact. We put a huge emphasis on information sharing, communications and relationships, and we use data and customer insights to improve what we do and how we do it.
We have ambitious business goals, but we don’t just do things a certain way because that’s how it’s always been done. We’re here to transform an entire category, this means developing new and better ways of doing things.
We want to set you up for success, both from a performance and development perspective; we offer structured review processes, eNPS surveys, flexible and hybrid working policies, regular company-wide meetings, alongside a range of other internal initiatives.
