About Spencers

OUR CULTURE

You probably get all the feels when you hear the name "Spencer's." Maybe it was that fart machine your uncle bought for you in the sixth grade unbeknownst to your parents or the black choker you wore the day your boyfriend broke your heart in front of like, everyone. There's no denying it: we have a long history of makin' life fun, but we've come a long way since we first introduced the lava lamps and plasma balls that made us famous.

From state-of-the-art love products to attitude tees that make headlines to gag gifts you parade around town before you tie the knot, we have no problem pushing boundaries. In fact, WE ARE known for it.

So, why should you be a part of our team?

WE ARE COOL

Walk through our stores or the halls of our corporate office and you'll see firsthand that we're laidback and irreverent. We're firm believers in being true to YOU, so tattoos and piercings are as common as watercooler convos.

WE ARE OUTRAGEOUS

Have you ever seen a beer pong table set up in your office? We didn't think so! Our cups were filled with water and it was a product test, but it still counts, okay?! Witnessing a man dressed up as an inflatable poop emoji in one of our conference rooms is a common sight and this is what makes working for Spencer's so much fun. We're fast-paced and take our work seriously, but we always have a good laugh at the end of the day.

WE LOVE TO MINGLE

Whether it's critiquing our new exclusive costumes or quality-testing a whoopie cushion, our teams understand the importance of working collaboratively to challenge status quo and achieve our goals.

About Spirit

SO MUCH FUN IT'S SCARY!

What's it like to help Halloween come alive in the spookiest ways? How do we get ready for a killer season every year for our over 1,300 seasonal popup stores? Here's the scoop.

A FRIGHTFULLY FUN WORKPLACE

As you can imagine, working at Spirit Halloween isn't like working at your typical retail store or corporate office. For one thing, we are geared around a three-month shopping period leading up to Halloween, so while there's a large amount of year-round preparation that goes into our operation, there's also a heightened sense of excitement as "the season" approaches. Expect to see costumes for kids and adults, props, and décor, some cute, some spooky, everywhere you look. You'll not only have a front row seat to the largest seasonal Halloween retailer in the world, you'll be making a direct impact on what your friends and neighbors dress up as, whether they're trick or treating or haunting their home with ghosts, goblins and scarecrows.

NEVER A DULL MOMENT

There's never a "typical day" at Spirit because we are always working to innovate, expanding our reach and the size of our stores as well as staying timely so our customers can wear the most of-the-moment costumes to impress their friends. We want our animatronics to be the spookiest, our costumes to be the most hilarious and our décor to be the kind people stop and take photos of. You'll be working with the best and the brightest as you help us deliver the most fun Halloween experience possible to our guests.

STAY ON THE CUTTING EDGE

Spirit Halloween is on the cutting edge of pop culture and things that go bump in the night. Every year, we introduce all new spooky creations that will make you scream (sometimes literally) as well as beloved favorites from film, TV and beyond. We keep pushing ourselves to go above and beyond for those who look forward to Halloween all year long, and expect you to contribute your ideas to aid us in our mission.
