A career at We Are Group


Employees from We Are Group Smiling and Clapping

Are you thinking about a career at We Are Group? Here are a couple of things that are worth considering.

Let’s not start with the terms and conditions because if that’s the first thing you are looking for, then maybe we are not the right company for you. We really care about our staff and offer a competitive package, but first and foremost, we want people who embrace what we do, and that is to help people live their lives more confidently.

We are a Social Impact company, which means we believe in delivering services that have a positive impact on society, and that’s what our investors think as well. Our company is supported by Angel investors and some of the biggest Social Impact investors, both in the UK and Europe. This rich mix provides unique support and challenges. It’s almost like Dragons Den and you get all four dragons backing you.


What to expect

We are seeing significant growth. Last year, we increased our team by 50%, and we don’t see that slowing down anytime soon, so we experience occasional growing pains. But the good news is that you can be part of helping us grow up and shaping the future of the company.

If you are looking for a Tech role, then you are going to be pleased to hear that we are working with world-class software to develop a revolutionary solution that will change the whole way welfare support can be delivered in both the UK, but also abroad. The fun won’t be limited to just the tech space, there are lots of other job opportunities.

How we work means we distribute a significant amount of our funding back into the community, including 3rd sector, national charities, or smaller local community groups. Imagine how proud you will feel when you have helped a community group be part of a national programme that is delivering social impact across the UK.

Our office is based in the UK’s fastest growing City – Coventry. We are investing in a new office space, think trendy and new but not outlandishly expensive. Unfortunately, the wish for a slide in the office was voted out, but we will have a decent coffee machine to make up for it.

Work Environment

We Are Group Employees Smiling

As you would expect, we fully support Working from Home, but we do like to see you in the office now and then, so you can feel the buzz, meet your colleagues and make use of our new coffee machine.

In our job advert, you won’t see the usual “we welcome applications from xx” phrase. That is because we welcome all applicants. Just visit our office to see the diversity in our teams in action. Why not read what our team have to say, and rest assured, they also tell us when things are not going right.
