Our approach to AI:
At Rightmove, we expect everyone to actively explore and use AI tools to improve their productivity, creativity, and impact. We believe that software and product are ultimately people problems, and everything we build is aimed at improving the lives of others. Our view is that thoughtful use of AI can free up more time for the human parts of our work, understanding real problems, listening carefully, and making sure we are solving the right things in the right way. If you are not curious about how to use AI to work smarter, this is unlikely to be the right environment for you.
