Gousto is for everyone: Whether it’s creating diversity in our recipes or building new teams, we care about our people and the opportunities they have at Gousto. Across our business we lead with inclusivity and strive for equity in all we do; working hard to ensure Gousto is an environment where you can be totally yourself.
Everyone is welcome and we’re looking for applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.
Excited but wondering if you tick every box? We recommend applying anyway so that we can review your profile. And, if you’re in a job share, why not just apply as a pair.
For our roles outside of Operations, most of our people spend 1 or 2 days in our offices every week, combining the benefits of flexibility and time together with colleagues. We want to enable you to do your best work, and if you require additional flexibility, please talk to us about it.
If you have a disability that you’re worried will affect you during the interview process, please let us know and we will do our best to help you feel comfortable.
We’d love it if you could submit your application online. If you require an alternative method of applying, please let us know.
