Location

All positions are remote. 

We have an office at MakeSpace Central in Oxford that employees can use, and we will consider sponsoring workspace hire in a location of the candidate’s choosing.

We're happy to consider non-UK applicants provided your working hours align with UK mornings. Your employment status will depend on the tax situation in your country.

About you

As well as skills specific to each role, we’re looking for people who will help us develop the business.

You'll thrive if you: 

  • have a positive, creative approach towards challenges
  • have strong organisational and time-management skills
  • care about communication and team dynamics
  • are good at setting goals for yourself and others
  • are open to being mentored and mentoring others in turn
  • have a flair for new ideas and leadership

How to apply

Closing date for applications: 8 September 2023 at 5pm BST.

Applications are now closed.

Step 1: Application

In the application form we ask:

  1. What is it about this opportunity that encouraged you to apply?
  2. What relevant experience would you bring to the role?
  3. Please give an example of how you've made a positive contribution to a team in the past.
  4. Please describe an occasion when you've had to communicate complex information.

    The word limit for each question is 1,500 characters (approximately 300 words).

    We run an anonymous application process, as we have found that this yields better results. While we do ask for details of relevant work experience, this is to understand your approach and what you have learned. We do not ask for a CV or portfolio of work.

    Step 2: Interview

    If we feel that you are a good fit for Agile Collective, we will invite you to an interview.

    Ahead of the interview, we will ask you to complete a task relevant to the position. Again, this is to understand your approach and see how you respond to a challenge.

    Agile Collective will pay you a flat fee of £300 for the time it takes to complete the task and interview.
