Unifrog’s mission

We’re on a mission to level the playing field when it comes to young people finding and applying for their next step after school. We're achieving this by bringing all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices, and submit the strongest applications. We also empower teachers and counsellors to manage the progression process effectively.
 

Our outlook is global - we work with schools and universities all over the world, from the US to New Zealand, and from Italy to Hong Kong. We want to make it so that young people can compare every opportunity taught in English, wherever it is in the world, and have all the support they need to make successful applications.
 

We have a clear social purpose, and we’re hugely ambitious. We already work with over half of UK secondary schools, and hundreds of international schools. We are growing rapidly in terms of the number of our customers, in terms of how much they use our platform, and in terms of the breadth of products we offer.
 

Our team is at the heart of our business and is integral to our success. We work hard to foster a culture of openness, happiness and innovation, and we commit to helping every individual learn and grow so that they can reach their full potential. We want to hire talented people, whatever their background. If you are excited by our mission and are ready to work hard, please don’t hesitate to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
 

We believe in the power of diversity. If you are from an ethnic minority background, we would like to strongly encourage you to apply. In advance of applying if you have any questions about working at Unifrog, please contact our Recruitment Lead (contact details on our website). 

Events at Unifrog

Whether we’re hosting our annual conference for 300 teachers and advisors in the UK, delivering networking events for international school counselors across the world, or bringing together professionals from across the university and employer sectors to provide them with networking opportunities and unique insights into our student audience, we strive to make our events as engaging and useful as possible.

All events at Unifrog are created to best support our students, teachers and advisors, and our university and employer partners at key stages of the academic year: 

• In-person conferences give UK teachers and advisors the chance to connect with top universities and employers, keep up-to-date with the latest in careers education, and network with the Unifrog team.

• International networking events take place in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia to facilitate one-on-one conversations between university representatives and international school counselors, giving counselors the valuable opportunity to get tailored advice and guidance relevant to them and their students. 

• We also run loads of virtual events throughout the year for all our different audiences, including large scale virtual university and apprenticeship fairs for students. 

• In addition, Unifrog’s partner-facing teams attend external conferences and events across the globe to network with partners and prospective partners. The Events team makes sure they have all the conference kit and marketing materials they need to be successful.

• To make sure everyone’s voice is heard and people have the opportunities to learn to be better allies in the workplace, we encourage the team to share what they’re celebrating, facilitate training and group discussions, and seek regular feedback about what more the company could do to help people feel included.

• To ensure that our recruitment process is consistent and fair, we anonymise your application and therefore do not see your name, personal, educational or professional background. We also randomise the order of responses so that it’s less likely that a candidate is advantaged or disadvantaged by where their answers appear compared to other candidates.
