Job description

At Urban Company, we are changing the way the world experiences home and personal services. We have made the experience of buying these services as easy as getting food delivery - select, schedule, book on an app and a high-quality professional comes to you to provide a standardized, high quality and fixed price service. Since our launch in 2014, we have built a network of 78,000+ trained service professionals and served over 13 million customers across major metropolitan cities of Singapore, India, UAE and KSA.

We launched UC in Singapore at the beginning of 2020 and have been growing consistently since then. Our services range from Home Cleaning, AC Repairs and Servicing to Beauty and Wellness services at home. Over the last 6 years we have built a consumer loved business with one of the best retention cohorts across UC. Amongst the fastest growing businesses at UC, the SG business is poised to scale to greater heights.
