About Flipdish
We're Flipdish, an Irish unicorn (valued at over $1bn), serving independent restaurants in a world transformed by tech. No matter how fast Flipdish has grown, we've evolved around our customers and their needs. We're not just an end-to-end ecosystem of technology, but a team committed to supporting people in the food industry.
We go to great lengths to understand our customers (check out our C-suite on work experience). We're food industry natives. We've worked in busy kitchens and run busy restaurant franchises. We don't just help our customers deal with real life problems, we give them a way of competing with the big chains, growing on their own terms, and falling back in love with what they do.
Our culture
At this point, you might expect the usual spiel about how great a place Flipdish is to work at and how great our work culture is (and it is!). But, this all depends on our employees. And that's because we trust our employees to define what sort of an employer Flipdish is.
Transparency is hugely important to us. We listen to one another. We collaborate. And we give everyone a way to grow their careers through a supportive environment.
We're a company that values diversity, inclusion, and wellbeing as standard. We believe in balance, not burnout. Every Wednesday is meeting-free and we get Summer Fridays (Fridays off during the summer). And all permanent employees qualify for our share scheme because we share our success.
We're flexible employers. We have teams based on both sides of the Atlantic who get their jobs done both from home and from some of our beautiful offices in bustling cities like New York, London, Barcelona, and Dublin.
So, if you want to join a genuinely friendly team, take a look at our current openings and get in touch. And if you don't see an opening just yet, do get in touch and register your interest with us anyway. We'll be in touch as soon as something suitable opens up.
Don't be shy. Apply.
We know that imposter syndrome can be a thing. Don't let it be. We want enthusiastic people from all backgrounds. If you feel like you're up for working with us, get in touch.
We also understand neurodivergent candidates might need assistance. That's not a problem in the slightest. Just reach out to us, we'd love to hear from you.
