Over 23% of the UK’s population search and sell on Gumtree each month, join the team of people who make buying and selling second hand safer, simpler and more enjoyable for everyone, because we believe everything can find a new purpose! Gumtree was founded in 2000 by two friends, with the aim of building a community where people like them could find everything they needed to settle into a new city and do so quickly and affordably. What they created was a platform where people could come together to help each other out in small ways. Our purpose is to make good finds happen, whether that’s finding the right buyer for your vintage collectibles or finding a local upholsterer to breathe new life into your sofa. As a company we are on a mission to make buying and selling second hand safer, simpler, and more enjoyable for everyone, because we believe everything can find a new purpose (and that’s good for you and good for the planet). Here at Gumtree.com we are on a mission to create a culture where all our teams are inspired to share their passion, talents and ideas with equal opportunities for growth and career development throughout both of our brands. We know that a diverse and inclusive team drives creativity and makes both our brands stronger. That’s why we’re committed to discovering new talent and employing people who reflect the nature of the society around us, so that when you join Gumtree.com you can be you!
