ABOUT THE BRAND
AKT (pronounced “act”) is The Personal Performance Company with multi award‑winning body care designed to keep up with life’s most demanding stages. Founded by West End performers Ed Currie and Andy Coxon, AKT is built for those who are Born to Perform — on stage, at work, or in everyday life.
In 2020, The Deodorant Balm made its debut to rave reviews from Vogue, GQ, Esquire, and Harper’s BAZAAR. Plastic‑free, aluminum‑free, and gender‑free, it quickly became a cult favorite for people seeking a natural deodorant that truly performs. With five signature fragrances and over 700,000 happy armpits, AKT is becoming a global essential.
Every AKT formula is tested by London’s theatre community to ensure it performs under pressure. Our products don’t break character — ever. And the performance is only getting started.
ABOUT THE PRODUCTION
AKT London was created by two professional actors who were tired of skincare and body care products that couldn’t keep up with the demands of the stage. We don’t just offer high‑performance deodorant — we provide the essential “costume” for your skin. Our formulas are designed to perform under pressure, keep you fresh, and help you command any room with confidence.
We are currently seeking a Cast Member (Brand Ambassador) to represent AKT in local retail locations. You are the face of the brand, the narrator of our story, and the expert who helps customers discover their perfect match.
