Our Vision
Our vision is simple; we want a vegan world. A world without animal farms and slaughterhouses. A world where food production does not decimate forests, pollute rivers and oceans, exacerbate climate change, and drive wild animal populations to extinction.
Our Values
Impact: we are committed to a vegan world; we will utilise research to evaluate how the highest number of lives can be spared and direct resources to that end.
Empowerment: we will optimise our outreach to support and encourage people on their vegan journey in a non-judgemental, positive, constructive and easily accessible way.
Collaboration: by partnering with other mission-driven organisations and working closely with corporates, we will make a bigger difference.
Diversity and inclusion: we know that it takes people with different ideas, strengths, interests and backgrounds to achieve our vision; we appreciate the value of this and how it brings us closer to achieving our mission.
Respect and integrity: in all internal and external relationships, we will strive for genuine, honest, and transparent communication.
Resilience: we will continue to create a professional and sustainable (human, social, economic and environmental) organisation.

1. A job specific pre interview task (to be completed between 23rd - 26th September 2024)
We’re lucky enough to receive many amazing applications for our roles and it’s sometimes difficult to select a small number of people to interview. By having a pre interview task, it allows us to learn more about our shortlisted candidates than a CV and cover letter can tell us.
2. A first interview with the hiring manager and one other team member (Interviews will take place on 30th September 2024)
This is always competency based and job aligned so there isn’t anything for you to prepare.
3. A timed trial task (to be completed between 1st – 3rd October 2024)
You will be given a job specific task to be completed with a short window of time at a time agreed with our HR team.
4. A follow up second interview with the hiring manager and one other team member (Interviews will take place on the 7th October 2024)
