how we will support you:

Working at the leading edge of innovation can be exhausting. Achieving things that haven’t been done before requires focus, adaptability and bravery. This can be draining and sometimes all consuming. We understand this and as we progress on our journey, we will endeavour to provide a wide range of support tools for our teams.

People are not happy or effective when they are tired or stressed so we encourage you to take some time off (phone actually off!) every quarter. We encourage you to share your outside interests with us and we will support you to find the time to do the things that are important to you.

how we work:

We are intentional and we are brave. We stay true to our values and we always support each other. We don’t shy away from difficult conversations, and we approach them with candour and respect. Working at fan3 you will be given the autonomy to create impact and we believe trust is given, not earned.

As such we work flexibly and remotely. We have a globally distributed team and choose to operate in a decentralised way, staying true to the digital revolution we are part of. We expect you to own and be accountable for your outcomes. Technology sits at the heart of our collaboration and task management, and we are always looking to learn and adapt how we work.

diversity, equity and inclusion:

At fan3 we embrace difference and celebrate our individual stories and qualities that make us all unique. We all had a life before Web3 and it is these lived experiences that bring richness and strength to our culture, creativity and innovation. We fundamentally believe that difference perspectives create stronger group outcomes, solve bigger problems and create braver solutions.

Web3 is democratising access to opportunity, creativity and prosperity and we understand our responsibility as a vehicle for adoption of this new world. We want to play are part in building a better internet, and that starts with ourselves. How we show up, how we hire and how we behave.

It is everyone’s responsibility in the business to continually promote diversity, equity and inclusion. We understand that we are on a journey and we will continually evaluate our progress and make improvements.

If you are passionate about building game-changing products in the entertainment industry and thrive in a fast-paced, innovative environment, we’d love to hear from you!
