We look for positive people who think outside the box, are inventive, bold, lead change, and believe that teamwork matters.

The Team Culture

To say that our People team puts people first is an understatement. Here, human qualities and emotional intelligence are just as important as professional skills or the ability to shine during a karaoke session. We are a great team (People Ops, Talent Acquisition, Communication, Internal Culture & Office Management) with a big heart, never lacking in effort and always striving to make everyone's daily life easier. Do you have what it takes to become a part of our team?
