In recent years, we’ve focused on delivering technology enabled services in the public sector. Our strategic aim is to expand our influence across public, private and the third sector to address systemic problems in areas such as housing, education, sustainable energy, and health & wellbeing.

At Unboxed, we strive to create an inclusive workplace environment where people can thrive and feel they belong, by promoting a good work life balance, open communication and positive working relationships.
Our success depends on our team, and we want each member to feel fulfilled and valued. We believe individual progression is based on self-reflection and self awareness of where you are coming from, where you are now, and where you want to be. We also believe career progression is most powerful when it’s owned by, and driven by you. As part of your progression, you can expect:
We are an equal opportunity employer and we’re committed to further increasing diversity within Unboxed. We believe in fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace that values and embraces the unique perspectives and experiences that each individual brings.

We use salary bands to ensure that everyone at Unboxed gets paid fairly in relation to others at the company. We assess what band you are in according to skills, competencies and experience. This role will sit within our mid-level band with a salary of £47,500.
