Description

The Company:
In 2000, the founders of method took on the Goliaths of the cleaning world with a big yet simple idea… reposition home care as personal care. By combining style & substance through the two mega-trends of design and green, they were able to build a brand that has quickly become the thought leader of home care.
Today, method is a respected and award-winning consumer products company. In 2008 we were ranked by Fast Company magazine as the 16th most innovative company in the world. In nine short years we have built the first lifestyle brand within home care and developed an innovation track record across cleaning, laundry, and personal care. method products can be found in Target, Lowes, Safeway, Walgreen’s, Whole Foods and most grocers nationwide along with growing distribution in Europe, Asia and Australia. We have disrupted every aspect of the category including packaging, advertising, PR, interactive and merchandising. And we are just getting started.

At method we speak to the group of advocates we call “People Against Dirty” and we have developed a corporate culture very much in synch with that revolutionary spirit. The work environment is creative, brand-savvy, entrepreneurial, fast-paced, solutions-focused, irreverent but disciplined, team-orientated and fun.

method has achieved revenues of over $100MM, is a profitable business and is expecting to grow aggressively over the coming years. It is a privately-held company based in San Francisco, and has attracted a very strong Board of Directors including Tim Koogle, former CEO of Yahoo!, who serves as Chair.
