Are you a creative, organized and detail-oriented storyteller? We are looking for a Communications & Marketing Officer and want you to join us!
ABOUT US
The difference between the haves and have-nots in a modern economy is access to credit. Laboremus builds tech solutions that allow banks and fintechs to make credit accessible to anyone, anywhere, anytime. Put differently: We build next-generation digital infrastructure that banks and fintechs use to accelerate innovation and roll out credit products.
At Laboremus, we have a brilliant and driven team of developers, product managers and advisors. We give you both the freedom and responsibility to innovate and create work that makes you stand out. We continuously invest in personal development through training and certifications, in addition to offering health insurance, salary loans, flexible “Work from home”- policy, and daily lunches in our office garden.
Since we started in 2013, we have delivered solutions for banks, asset management firms and fintechs in East Africa and Europe, notably in Uganda, working with all 34 supervised financial institutions and the Central Bank. In 2018, we started building Emata, a digital bank for farmers. Emata has since become an award-winning venture and was spun off as an independent company in 2020. We still share offices in Bugolobi, Kampala.
