Planning & Sales Associate

London, UK | Full-time

Our story

Beams is on a mission to make home renovation simpler and greener. We’re doing this by building a revolutionary technology platform and marketplace for homeowners and contractors so they can plan, design and build all in one place.

From the moment the customer starts to plan their renovation and selects their design, to final completion, the Beams platform offers a seamless journey, allowing homeowners to take a backseat and oversee construction, while Beams-vetted contractors deliver projects tailored to their clients’ tastes. 

Backed by top-tier investors, Giant Ventures and Firstminute Capital, and with an experienced leadership team from Bulb, Deliveroo and Bumble, Beams is primed to disrupt the $450 billion European renovation market.

Having a positive impact and cultivating a positive company culture are important to us. We reward and applaud people who take action, who get results, who can communicate clearly and straightforwardly, who are always looking to improve things and who turn up everyday with energy and appetite.
