Careers

Looking for a new opportunity within a dynamic startup? We are developing new web-based treasury management software that challenges FinTech’s traditional view that software needs to be a complex toolkit, difficult to implement and expensive to maintain.

We are based at the Innovation Centre within the Anglian Ruskin University campus, walking distance from the Chelmsford town centre and train station. It’s a great working environment, combining the facilities available within the University campus, and excellent transport links only 35 minutes outside of London.

We actively promote combining time in the office with remote working. Work/life balance is important to us and we firmly believe you get the best software by supporting people’s work in a way that is most comfortable for them.

Our current openings are listed below, but we are always interested in hearing from developers or treasury systems professionals who might be interested in joining our team.

COVID-19 (January 2021)

Our offices are in university risk-assessed facilities; masks and sanitisers are available within a socially-distanced office layout. They remain open and available to use to support any people that can’t work from home.

However, at this time, all work has been transitioned to assume remote-working by default. All stands-ups and planning sessions are via video-conferencing and team-based online collaboration tools.
