Our perks:
Our perks aren’t fancy, but they are useful.
- Advanced investment in your development. We pay for things like confidence coaching, high-performance coaching and leadership training from world class speakers
- Flexible benefits – we let you have every Friday afternoon off for your well-being, go to the park, see friends or just get home early and miss the traffic!
- Flexible gym membership – on work-from-home days, feel free to go to the gym any time; no more turning up to the gym during rush hour!
- Quarterly socials – We try and ensure that our socials don’t revolve entirely around alcohol, so previous sessions have included Home Hosting, Pizza nights and evenings out to watch football.
Our office is in Chesterfield but we still take a hybrid approach. That’s right, a company in 2026 that actually isn’t 100% WFH since face time is important to us, our culture and the company we’re trying to build.
But let’s be real, we treat adults like adults – if you need to leave a bit early to pick your kid up or go to a specific gym class, that’s cool too.
Working for a startup is like having your personal and professional growth on steroids. If you want to learn a whole host of new skills (some you didn't even realise you wanted to learn), fast-track your progression, and build out your dream role - you'll love it here, and we'd love to have you.
