About Opply : After becoming one of the fastest growing VC-backed startups in Europe, we've now expanded to the US. We're offering huge opportunities for progression in both the UK and the US as we continue to grow. Now we need extraordinary minds with a strong growth mindset who want to join us on our mission!

There are currently 1 million SMB consumer goods brands ordering over $1 trillion of raw ingredients per year imagine this was all ordered on one platform. Today, these brands all order separately with small teams and volumes, resulting in wasted stock and higher prices. Opply automates the entire ingredient ordering process by :

• Partnering with the world's biggest suppliers, giving SMBs access to pricing through our AI matching and forecasting model.
• Providing an AI-driven platform that orders the ingredients when and where you need them.
• Offering data-led credit that allows brands to sell goods before paying for ingredients.

We work with some of the most exciting brands and suppliers in the space and are shaping innovation in a market that's been underserved for too long. If you're a trailblazer, come join us!

Who We Are : We're a close-knit team of 25, working across five time zones, and we meet up every year to work, ideate and hang out. We're VC-backed by some of the world's top investors like Index, Anthemis and Chalfen Ventures, and unicorn angels from GoCardless, Flow.io and Trouva, and have won StartUp of the Year for Technology Services and Supply Chain Specialists of the Year at the Startup and Global Corporate LiveWire awards - achievements we're super proud of!
