Head of Operations

We're a UK headquartered Tech scaleup with a mission to make the world fairer and more productive. We are doing this by making assets more transparent, trustworthy and accessible - starting with real estate. Incomes have stagnated, so more access to high value assets like real estate = less wealth inequality. We have first mover advantage!

Our four values sit at our core - no BS, pursuit of excellence, feedback obsession and healthy ego.
