How to Apply
We know traditional hiring processes don’t always create room to demonstrate your talents.
We’d like to see your CV, but instead of a cover letter, we’ve created a short application form to understand how you approach problems.
👉 Please apply using this form.
We aim to respond to shortlisted candidates within 2 weeks. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for a chat with James Mbindo (Senior Growth Marketing Manager) and Anne Miltenburg (Brand Director).
