How we work

Our Vision is for a world where Perk serves as the platform for human connection in‑real‑life (IRL). We take an IRL‑first approach to work, where our team works together in person 3 days a week. As such, this role requires you to be within commuting distance of our Barcelona hub. We fundamentally believe in the value of meeting in‑real‑life to improve connectivity, productivity, and creativity and ultimately make us a great place to work.

At Perk, we prioritise experience and potential over academic qualifications for this role. We believe that talent and ability aren't always reflected in formal credentials.

For certain roles, we provide relocation assistance. Please specify your need for this in your application, and we will evaluate the possibility on a case‑by‑case basis. English is our official office language, so we request that resumes be submitted in English for effective communication.

Perk is a global company with a diverse customer base—and we want to ensure the people behind our product reflect that. We’re an equal‑opportunity employer, meaning you’re welcome at Perk regardless of how you look, where you’re from, or anything else that makes you, well, you.

Protect Yourself from Recruitment Scams

All official communication from Perk will always come from email addresses ending in @perk.com or @externalperk.com, our verified social media channels, or recruiters listed on our official LinkedIn page. We will never ask you to pay for equipment, training, or fees, request sensitive personal information such as bank details early in the process, or communicate through unofficial apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Signal. If you receive a message claiming to be from Perk that seems suspicious, please do not respond. Forward it to [e-mail], and we will confirm whether it is legitimate.
