Company Overview
Work for La-Z-Boy
Not many companies can say that they are both a household brand and one of the most innovative organizations in their industry. La-Z-Boy can. Ninety years after our first recliner, we’re still re-inventing the industry.
How do we do it? Our people. Together, we Build Something Amazing. Whether we’re meeting in the workspaces in our LEED-certified HQ, designing a customer’s room in our Furniture Galleries, developing new techniques in our manufacturing plants or creating the next big thing in our R&D department - our people are what drives us forward.
We want more movers and shakers, dreamers and doers, thinkers and tinker-ers. We want more people who are excited by their work and passionate about their communities. We want people who are ready to Build Something Amazing.
