Social Media Producer: New role

About NUE Hoops

The idea for NUE Hoops came to Tory (aka Mumma NUE) after attending a jewellery making course in East London in 2018. Now finding herself equipped with the skills to make her own earrings, she realised that interchanging charms on hoop earrings was a new idea and began to explore the concept more thoroughly. The notion grew and the desire to create a playful and empowering brand drove Tory to discuss her idea with her two daughters, Emily and Camilla. In early 2019 after exploration and discussion of the concept, the three women agreed to join forces and make Tory’s idea a reality. Equipped with the same entrepreneurial spirit that runs in the family, as well as strong skills in marketing and finance, the girls were inspired to set up the business with their mother.
