Can you imagine? IKEA started as a small mail-order company in Älmhult, a Swedish village in the countryside. Today, you can find us in 63 countries with a unique range. Working at IKEA means working in a world of ideas. A world that is described by our own colleagues as a workplace where everyone is welcome and you can be yourself. Where we make a difference together for as many people and the planet as possible. But also a workplace where you determine your own career steps and where there is a lot of room for your practical creativity and ideas. And all this while working in a nice team with colleagues who are always there for you and help you when needed.

Each country where IKEA is located has its own Remote Customer Meeting Point (RCMP). For IKEA Australia, we have hubs in multiple locations across IKEA Tempe. IKEA Logan and IKEA Perth. The RCMP is the point of contact for all customers who shop in our online store IKEA.au or in one of our 10 stores.
