It doesn’t have to be just work work work, find out what else we’ve been up to in and outside of the office
We run OpenRent at a profit, but also have backing from some of the largest VCs in the world. As such, we have an extremely solid foundation to build from.
In a broad sense, whatever is best for our users - but the direction comes from our developers and core team. From utilising our massive data set and machine learning to improve the experience on site, to building a greenfield solution for a new product, or simply iterating our current product - we're building a scalable, lovable platform for millions of people.
We currently have a hybrid office policy with 2 set office days per week (Tuesday and Thursday). We encourage new starters to be office based for their initial training and onboarding period so they can be supported by fellow team members.
Our team, now close to 50 strong, thrives on collaboration. Everyone works closely together and is aware of what others are working on. Communication is quick and easy, creating minimal barriers to progress. Each person plays a vital role and takes on many responsibilities. Having a substantial impact on our work here at OpenRent is very rewarding.
We do not currently offer visa sponsorships.
Our Customer Experience and Product Development team works 9am - 6pm when working on Customer Experience and they get days off in lieu for any weekends or bank holidays that they are scheduled to work. For all other employees our standard hours are (9am - 6pm), but we understand there is life outside of work, so we trust you to manage your own time - we're all about flexibility!
Yes! We want you to thrive. You'll see the impact of your work here! Being a smaller, agile team means you won't get lost in the crowd. We're growing fast, so there's lots of room for development—and you'll play a key role in shaping the future of renting.
Definitely. We trust you to own your projects and run with them! We encourage creativity and new ideas—if you see something that could be done better, we're all ears. It's all about taking initiative and making an impact.
Diversity is key to our success. We're committed to building a team where everyone feels welcome and can contribute their unique perspective. Inclusion is baked into our culture—because different backgrounds, experiences, and ideas help us build a better product for everyone.
