Meet the team »

Henry, Steph and Paulo take you behind the scenes of the unhotel.

No bones about it, we’re a startup, with all the adventures that brings. We’re also a fast-growing real business, making real money and serving real guests.

We’ve started in London, our home town, but we’re not going to rest until there’s an unhotel in every world city—without ever compromising on quality or attention to detail.

While your mum might not have heard of us yet, she soon will. When she does, unlike most of your other jobs, she’ll even understand what it is that you do for a living.

We’re hiring!

Want the best job on earth? Well tough, Santa ain’t retiring yet. Want the second best? You’re in luck because we’re looking for people just like you – for these roles in particular.

Is this you? It looks like you.

The holiday of a lifetime

If you want to change the world, you’ve come to the right place. In our own way, we’re doing it every day. We’re creating something new in the hospitality industry by giving each and every guest that stays with us the most incredible experience of London, and some fabulous memories to take home with them.

Be mad to work here

That all means there’s far too much to do — and it requires amazing people. People who are determined, curious, thoughtful to a fault and yet extremely practical. And at times it’s a tough gig. Perhaps even the hardest thing you’ll ever do (though we hear childbirth can hurt a bit). But for the right kind of person, it’s worth every minute.

A job that isn’t

If you’re interested in the usual corporate guff (being "passionately committed to excellence," and so forth), we hear MegaCorp Inc is offering buckets of cash and DIY lobotomies. We, on the other hand, grant you full rights to your immortal soul, we give you a desk you’ll share with assorted pieces of bed linen, and we’re such a tight-knit team, we even wear each others’ jumpers from time to time.

The glory. The perks.

Share options in the company So you can say ‘Buy! Sell! Etc!’ in the future.

The chance to travel internationally We’re going global real
soon now.

Almost too much responsibility Because there’s almost too much to do.

A somewhat funky open plan office Cubicles should only ever be found in hospitals.

An achingly hip location in East London, which will impress your mates.

No uniforms or suits Because we don’t do ‘bellhop’, darling.

Victuals. Endless victuals Free tea, coffee, Diet Coke and cake. Especially cake.

Everything you need to do the job You can bring your own pencils if you like.

One fine unbrick at a time

As we’re doing something no one has ever done before, there’s a whole lot that we need help with. It’s more a torrent than a trickle, and as torrents go, it’s broader than the Amazon. Across activities (sales, marketing, operations, guest services, tech), we’re inventing new systems, designing new processes and generally making technology bend to our will.

But it’s not just tech stuff you’ll need to be able to handle; you’ll have to keep your eyes open for the details. Our business depends on it. Little things like, you know, getting hospital corners right, and changing a light bulb for a guest at 3am on a wet Wednesday morning.

That special someone

All of which means we’re looking for a special type of someone. Someone hospitable, considerate, willing and able to go the extra mile or five to keep our guests happy. (We’ll provide the scooter.) Someone endlessly curious about the world. Someone who gets stuff done without asking for permission. Someone who basically enjoys getting their hands dirty. And someone who sometimes has the capacity to survive on little sleep and many carbs when circumstances demand.

Someone like you, perhaps?

Because if you are that special someone, there’s a huge challenge here with your name written all over it. And it even has a jaunty pink bow to keep it on brand.
