Description

ChargedUp is an award-winning, start-up, creating Europe’s largest portable charger rental network. We are using the sharing economy to revolutionise the way people charge their phones on the go. With a network of over 2000 charging stations across the U.K and expanding rapidly we aim to become the most successful player in the space of portable charger rentals. See ChargedUp.green for more information. Alongside our network, ChargedUp’s mobile application serves as an invaluable tool to communicate with our users offering them curated experiences and perks tailored to their habits at a final point of purchase.

Having raised significant funding from investors like Jagermeister, Founders Factory (a market-leading accelerator founded by Brent Hoberman of Lastminute.com and MADE.com), JamJar (Innocent Smoothies founders) and The Garage Soho (Sir John Hegarty and Tom Teichman) we are looking to grow our team by bringing together the best talent to make our vision a reality.

Due to the current Coronavirus Pandemic, we have launched a new project to provide hand sanitising stations to 1000s of venues across the UK. We believe it's a vital necessity in order to get the UK moving again after the lockdown.

Having successfully pivoted our business in a matter of weeks, we are now experiencing extreme demand for our hand sanitising stations, supplying the likes of Costa Coffee and TFL.

Whilst our longer-term goal is to rapidly grow the ChargedUp network, our short-term focus is on selling and distributing our hand-sanitiser dispensers, so please expect to have some involvement with this exciting project as soon as you start.
