THE EXPRESSWAY FORWARD

The corporate strategy is fueled and supported by a culture that is defined by three values - Express Yourself, Express Together, Express Success.
This is a unique and exciting time to join Express. Since launching our EXPRESSway Forward strategy in 2020, we have been steadily advancing a transformation from being known as a store in the mall to a brand with a purpose, powered by a styling community. We believe that clothes can serve a higher purpose to make people look the way they want to look and feel the way they want to feel, and our Express brand purpose - We Create Confidence. We Inspire Self-Expression . - speaks to the role our brand can play in our customers' lives.
Today, we are reimagining our store experience, bringing forward a spirit of hospitality so everyone who walks through our doors feels welcome and leaves wanting to be a part of our styling community. Our store experience and the teams that bring it to life are vitally important to our transformation. Our culture is defined by three values - Express Yourself, Express Together, Express Success - and we invite you to join us and help build, activate and amplify the Express styling community.
