About: Consigned Sealed Delivered (CSD) is a curated online consignment platform for consigning, buying and selling pre-owned luxury designer clothing, shoes, handbags, accessories and Jewellery. While we consciously extend the lifecycle of luxury designer fashion, we pride ourselves on creating the same shopping experience for pre-loved as buying something brand new.
CSD believes in empowering people by providing them the opportunity to grow within their roles. As a young company with around 25 employees, everyone knows each other on a first name basis, and it's easy to develop close working relationships with other management and the CEO. Every employee is given opportunities to show their talents and develop new strategies and initiatives. The benefit of working in a high-growth young and vibrant company is that the needs of the company are constantly evolving, and CSD always looks within when promoting before hiring externally.
