James Avery Careers and Employment
About us
OUR COMPANY
James Avery Jewelry is a family-owned company offering finely crafted jewelry designs in sterling silver, 14K and 18K yellow and white gold, and gemstones for women and men.
We are a vertically-integrated company, meaning we design, manufacture, market, and sell our own products. Additionally, to enhance the experience of shopping in – more... our stores, we handle all graphics, photography, internal architecture, and furniture making in-house.
James Avery has five manufacturing plants—one each in Hondo, Fredericksburg, and Kerrville, Texas and two in Comfort, Texas. We offer over 1,100 designs and maintain some 14,000 separate jewelry items in our active product line, each originated by skilled artisans in the Texas Hill Country.
OUR DESIGNS
James Avery Jewelry is designed to reflect the things that are important in life. Our designs are timeless, their appeal universal. We offer jewelry for special occasions and for everyday wear. Whether it’s a first communion cross, a wedding band, or a commemorative charm, each piece in our collection is crafted with the same care and attention to detail.
“I do not consider myself a jeweler as the name implies today. Rather, I like to think of myself as an artist presently concentrating in the precious metal media. I think the creative problems in designing jewelry are the same in any design field, but with the wearability dimension added. I strive to keep designs from being contrived, cluttered, or cute. The challenge is to keep things simple.” — James Avery – less

What do employees at James Avery say about culture and work-life balance?
Beautiful environment, beautiful jewelry
Best job I ever had. I was hired while Mr. Avery was still a big part of the company culture. We were treated like family; great salary and benefits. Day to day was typical retail but very busy during promotions and of course, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Christmas season. We had lines out the door! But it was fun - primarily because we worked - more...
Pros
Great benefits, employee discounts, reasonable hours for managers.
Cons
Always a hiring need due to local economy - lots of competition for great retail employees.
