About Us

COME ON our JOURNEY WITH US.

Way back in 1792, Henry Walton Smith and his wife Anna opened the very first WHSmith store in Little Grosvenor Street, London. Who knew it would be the beginning of such an amazing journey?

Over 230 years later and the Company is still growing. You’ll find our stores and our family of brands in airports, hospitals and railway stations – as well as right across the world!

And because we’re growing fast and constantly evolving our offer, it’s a really exciting time to get onboard and be a part of this next stage of our journey. So, if this sounds like your kind of journey, we’d love you join us!

I was happy to be able to continue my WHSmith journey in the Sydney Support Office, where I’m now Business Intelligence Analyst. I was very apprehensive about moving here for all different reasons, so I’m quite proud of myself for not letting that fear stop me! I never could have imagined I’d enjoy it as much as I have.
