Our culture is electric
Our culture is one of the many reasons we were recently voted to be in the top 100 organisations to escape to in 2022 via Escape The City (out of 13,000 nominations).
At Pod Point we like to think we are anything but conventional. We have worked hard to create a rapidly-growing, constantly innovating, flat-structured world, where each employee can see the vital contribution they are making to the company.
We knew from the very beginning that a rigid, corporate environment was never going to work for us, and we have stayed true to our word - we’re anything but.
We work hard but we’re not clock-watchers and you will be given plenty of guidance and very few rules. We’ll pay you well, give you complete ownership to shape your role, give you ground-breaking projects to work on and surround you with fantastic, talented people.
We also provide the following benefits:
- Salary Sacrifice Electric Vehicle Scheme
- Flexible working hours and a casual dress code
- Remote first working approach
- 25 days holiday (plus Bank Holidays)
- Very generous maternity and paternity leave scheme
- Pension scheme
- Eyecare scheme
- The odd Pod Point puppy to cuddle if you come into the office
- Employee Assistance Program
Remote first
We’re a “Remote first” company, so we conduct all interviews on Google Meet and are pretty good at onboarding new starters remotely (if we do say so ourselves). We do have our dog friendly (!) London office which you will be welcome to use for work if you prefer - although there will be no requirement for you to do so.
Final things to note
Pod Point is an equal opportunities employer, although you must be legally able to work in the UK, and any data you provide us will be stored and disseminated in accordance with Pod Point’s Privacy Policy.
We like to deal directly with our candidates so no agencies please!
Pod Point is one of UK's leading providers of electric vehicle charging. Since forming in 2009, we have manufactured and sold over 175,000 charging points across the UK. We've also developed an extensive public network connecting EV drivers with 7,300+ charging bays at locations including Tesco, Lidl and Center Parcs.
