Excellence & InnovationWe don’t churn out trendy websites; we build innovative but highlyreliable software that’s used by some of the largest companies in the world.

We’re not looking for people to hack out some half-decent code or chuck the latest buzzwords at us, we’re looking for people committed to delivering quality code and who take real pride in their work.

A great place to be a developer

That means software development, technical innovation and product quality are the first things on our mind, not the demands of sales teams or investors.

Unlike most technology companies, Squared Up was founded by and is run by a software engineer.

Let’s get things done!We’re a young, energetic start-up that’s going places, so we don’t need people who love nothing better than dealing with complex corporate politics and bureaucracy; we need experienced ‘doers’ who take responsibility and ownership, help projects reach successful goals and enjoy mentoring and inspiring their colleagues.

Above all, we believe that, as an outstanding individual in a rapidly growing start-up, you should get to shape your role, not the other way round, and our priority is to deliver a great work-life balance and quality of life to our team, not to flog people for every last hour we can get.

LeadershipWe’ve achieved a lot in a short space of time and intend to keep going.

Founder and CEO, Richard Benwell, is a former Citrix product architect with a Masters Degree in Engineering from Cambridge University, assisted by head of Sales & Marketing, Richard South, who brings with him a track record of tech start-up success.

Driven by a clear and ambitious vision for Squared Up, the future looks very bright indeed.
