CloudM Culture:

We are a company consisting of old hands and new faces, all with a passion for technology’s power to simplify. We are developers, designers, marketers and innovators.

We are constantly trying new things, and sometimes getting it wrong. Which is good, as innovation never came from perfection. We work quickly to keep pace with the industry we’re in. We’re proactive, not reactive, and have been that way since day one. We want to have the answers when our customers ask us questions.

CloudM is a remote-first organisation. This means we are not limited to one geographical location. We are committed to attracting and developing a diverse workforce, seeing individual differences as opportunities for innovation and growth. Our company is about culture-add, not culture-fit.

Our DE&I (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) strategy is ingrained in everything we do here at CloudM. From recruitment and employee engagement to our EVP (Employee Value Proposition). We use gender bias decoders to check our job listings are inclusive and post on LGBTQ+ and neurodiverse job boards for our recruitment. Our EVP includes flexible working hours (we believe flexible working should be the norm, not the exception), generous family leave pay (commonly known as maternity/paternity/adoption leave), EAP (Employee Assistance Program) and mental health first aiders. All of this helps with our team’s work-life balance, removing barriers to childcare or caring for relatives and pets. Our team can do the school run or even go to the gym in the middle of the day. We are trying to build a culture of flexibility and inclusivity for the long term.

Location:

Remote-based role. However, within commutable distance to Manchester would be desirable for the odd team-building activity / meeting.

Environmental & Social Responsibility:

Our business strives to progress our industry as a whole and are using the B Corporation framework to continuously build on how we can treat our employees, community and environment with respect.

We expect that all of our employees play their part in our social progression plans, whether that’s leading the environmental board, playing a part in the DEI community, participating in a charity support day or simply just following our advice on buying locally and considering the environment when booking a hotel or restaurant. Every bit counts.
