Job description

Dark Matter Commerce is the leading digital commerce agency for world-class brands, driving innovation and excellence in performance marketing, commerce technology, and eCommerce consultancy.

Within Dark Matter Commerce, we have the following agencies:

• Space 48
• Brave The Skies
• Bring Digital
• This Is Digital

All working together to offer a wide range of best in class services to our clients. Bring Digital and This Is Digital both work on a hybrid basis with a base in Manchester. Brave The Skies and Space 48 made the decision at the start of the pandemic to go fully remote which still holds to this day. This doesn't mean we don't like each other, quite the opposite. Our culture is at the heart of our values across Dark Matter Commerce and therefore every employee goes through a culture interview as part of the employment process. Both remote and hybrid working has meant that we are no longer limited by walls and geography when we are hiring. We now look far and wide for the best expertise to join our business to continue the delivery of an amazing service. The role is fully remote but the option is there to work on a hybrid basis should someone prefer.

The finance team is looking for someone to join the team who can support on a wide variety of tasks. This role is not limited, if you are looking to continue to grow, develop and learn then those opportunities will be there in abundance.
