Home improvement firm Kingfisher hits TikTok to showcase people, roles and opportunities
Kingfisher, which operates in seven countries across Europe under retail banners including B&Q, Castorama, Brico Dépôt, Screwfix, TradePoint and Koçtas, has gone live on TikTok.
In a LinkedIn post, Polly Fisher, External Communications Officer at Kingfisher, said: "What once felt like a distant dream has finally launched this week, with three brilliant posts already live! It’s been so fun creating and launching this new channel and I cant wait to continue showcasing the amazing people, roles and opportunities there are at Kingfisher."
She added: "Am so proud of us Sian Birks (Employer Brand & Recruitment Marketing Manager), and couldn’t have done any of it without our amazing TikTok squad Olivia Thompson, Zahaib Hamid, John Vouniotis, Bethany H., Rachel Miles, Kaylie Brook and many others we’ve hounded in the office. Special shout out to our gang at MSL UK for all their help."
2025 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS
Social media was a key focus area at the 2025 RTIH Innovation Awards.
We received a record number of entries and many fantastic examples of the continued resilience and dynamism of the retail space during hugely challenging times.
For a full rundown of all of the shortlisted entries, click here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC in Central London on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
