You’ll share our ideals and ethos on sustainability, ethics and diversity and be motivated to make an immediate impact. You’ll be willing to participate, add value, and successfully solve the challenges of a rapidly growing technology business.

Finally, you’ll want to make a difference and be part of a team that’s excited about addressing big issues like climate change and making our cities more liveable. We also want to break the mould in cycling and logistics, creating a much more diverse sector that is stronger and better at what it does

**What to expect from us**:
This is a great opportunity to enter a business at an early stage in its journey, and play a crucial role in shaping the future direction of the people function from the ground-up.

We offer a competitive salary, 25 days holiday, bonus and/or share options, a cycle-to-work scheme as well as a great team culture to work with. We look forward to hearing from you.
