About Hillberg & Berk
Hillberg & Berk is a privately held, purpose-driven, Canadian company. We positively impact women’s empowerment through the success of our products and our brand. Our purpose guides every facet of our business model—from design, to manufacturing, to the distribution of quality jewellery and accessories.
This is Us: For women, by women. We are here because of women: Rachel, the woman who started Hillberg & Berk at her kitchen table, the team of women we’ve grown into and the community of women who support us. Our jewellery is emblematic of the boldness and brilliance every woman already possesses within herself. Our business is centered around connecting and empowering women. In everything we do, the reason is women.
When a woman rises, we all rise. The most powerful thing a woman can be is herself. She writes the definition. Daring. Passionate. Joyful. Determined. There’s never just one way to be. A woman owning her colours and contrasts is magnetic. It inspires, it travels, it builds. Tapping into it, channeling it to raise up others, that’s how we change the world.
Our Culture: Our collaborative environment is focused on employee empowerment, teamwork, and our mission to empower women. Our Values: The most powerful thing a woman can be is herself. She writes the definition. Daring. Passionate. Joyful. Determined. There's never just one way to be. A woman owning her colours and contrasts is magnetic. It inspires, it travels, it builds. Tapping into it, channelling it to raise up others, that's how we change the world. Our Benefits: Our benefits include comprehensive health coverage, wellness incentives, an employee RRSP plan, professional development opportunities, and special jewellery pricing and bonuses. Oh, and you get your birthday off, too
"For you, we create beautiful jewellery. With you, we create beautiful change." -Rachel Mielke, Founder & CEO
