PR Coordinator - USA (Temporary Position)
Jimmy Fairly, opticians.
Boring? Expensive? Dull? That’s what eyewear used to be.
Jimmy Fairly was born in Paris in 2010 with a mission to shake up the optical world: well-designed, high-quality glasses at fair prices—with a strong commitment to social impact.
Today, we have over 160 stores across Europe and the UK, and we’re growing fast—opening 30 new locations each year. Our model is simple and powerful: fresh collections every six weeks, short-circuit manufacturing, and a seamless, style-driven customer journey.
In partnership with Restoring Vision, we donate a pair of glasses for every one sold—because good vision should be a right, not a luxury.
