BENEFITS

​

What we can offer you

​

• Remote working within the UK - We're a distributed team, so whether you want to join a co-working space or get your work done from home, the choice and flexibility are yours.

​

• Work/life balance - We work a 35 hour week and encourage downtime. We don't want people burning out. We offer a full Headspace or Calm subscription and have free mental health support available.

​

• The chance to make a big impact - We're a small team of 22 (and growing), and we don't do silos, so there's a big opportunity for you to collaborate closely with people across the whole company and make your mark.

​

• Easy-going team - We enjoy spending time with each other. Not being in the office together every day makes the heart grow fonder, so every 3 months or so we organise for the whole team to hang out and catch up. Our recent expeditions have included a Breaking Bad Cocktail Making experience (with virgin options), a food tour across London's East End, and making Christmas wreaths for that festive feeling.

​

• Need a holiday? We offer 32 days of holiday per year, which means more time to do something off the beaten path.

​

• Growth - We believe it's important for people to have the resources to grow both personally and professionally, so we offer a generous conference and books budget to help you scratch that knowledge itch.
