How we work at Ember
Distributed yet connected
Regardless of location, we want our distributed team members to feel like they’re part of the Ember community. We nourish our internal relationships both in our virtual monthly All-Hands sessions and by hosting company-wide events once a quarter in London, as well as an annual company Off-Site.
Looking after our batteries
We can’t always be running at max capacity — and that’s okay! As well as on-demand access to mental health support from trained professionals, Ember employees are entitled to enhanced sick day policy for both mental and physical, including period pains or complications.
Continuous learning & development
At Ember, we’re all about growth. Not only do we foster a culture of continuous feedback, but we encourage personal development through training days and a learning budget up to £1,000. We want to empower our team to unlock their own — and Ember’s — potential!

Benefits beyond the job
Alongside awesome colleagues and incredibly engaging work, we empower our team to do great work in a number of ways. Here’s a brief overview of the benefits we offer right now.
Share Options
Everything we do is down to our team & we believe that we should all own a part of what we're building - that's why we give equity in the company to everyone on our team.
Hybrid Working
Work where you do your best work. We have a beautiful London WeWork office that's available for anyone to use, we're also happy for you to work remotely or a bit of both.
Working From Abroad
Everyone in the team is also eligible to take up to 4 weeks a year working from abroad. Whether it's Barcelona or Berlin - you can check into the local WeWork and go about your business.
Socials
There's an amazing camaraderie among the team, and at least once a quarter, we all like to get together and let our hair down a bit. The Quarterly Kick-off is not one to miss!
Learning & Education
We provide everyone with an annual training budget of £1,000 to spend on books, courses and conferences!
Training
Everyone in the team is encouraged to take 1 day a month to spend on personal & professional development. This helps both you & Ember level up.
Wellbeing
We offer paid sick leave for both physical & mental health (including any period complications or pains), and we also provide on-demand access to mental health support via our partners at Oliva.
Holiday
We offer 25 days of holiday a year, in addition to bank holidays – and we encourage you to use them all!
