Pa to The CEO

About us We are a small, fast-moving, and enthusiastic team. We love folks who ask questions and aren't afraid to point out where things can be improved. We also prize folks who can say 'I don't know'. We'll take an ounce of humility and honesty over a ton of over-confidence any day. We’re highly collaborative and encourage people to contribute and help each other. We also believe in building the role around the person, rather than the person around the role. We believe in investing in our team and ensure all staff have a comprehensive career development plan. This includes a training budget and training days, but also opportunities for growth and to learn or flex new skills in your day-to-day work. We are a fully remote company (though we do like to meet up occasionally). The founders have been in or running remote teams for over a decade, so we’re pretty good at it. We are flexible around working hours to accommodate things that come up in life, be that child care, medical or other. We realise that remote working can sometimes feel solitary, so we strive to provide a supportive environment based on a work-life balance. - We’re honest with our team and our clients. - We’re fiercely loyal to our team and care about you as a person, not as a resource. - We’re tenacious in overcoming challenges. - We hold ourselves accountable, and expect our team to do the same in a blame free environment. Our share options are a great example of our desire to ensure that **we all win together**; and as a revenue funded company those options already hold value.

Remote work & hours Ad Signal is a fully remote company. Our team is spread through the UK and abroad. We meet up occasionally for meetings and socials, but your day to day will be from home. Provided you are a UK citizen or would otherwise be entitled to work in the UK post-brexit we are also happy for you to work overseas if you would like to. The only restriction on this is that the time difference with the UK must be ±2 hours or less. Our normal working hours are 9am to 6pm, with core hours of 10am to 5pm.
