Meet the team.
We’re a tight-knit crew of community & content builders determined to fix the disconnect between education and work
It all started in 2020
Earlywork was founded by Jono, Dan and Marina in 2020. It started off as a newsletter curating early-career resources around tech & startups, after seeing friends struggle to find job opportunities.
As our audience grew, we launched a community for more intimate career conversations, the Earlywork Village, and so began our ecosystem of communities.
So many early-career folks in tech are playing their career on single-player.
Our mission is to make ambition multiplayer. We envision a global ecosystem where any ambitious person in tech can find their crew. But for Earlywork, it’s still early days…
Become an Earlyworker
Our ambition is for Earlywork to be seen as the world’s best training ground for community builders, content creators and next-generation educators.
Build your brand amongst the best
In building a global ecosystem of communities, you’ll elevate your personal brand among current and future leaders in the industry.
Mentorship from world-class leaders
We’re a company built around careers and community and so, mentorship from the best is only an introduction away.
Solve a meaningful, high-leverage human problem
We’re building products that can radically change where someone starts out their career. In turn, we provide a springboard to change the course of their life and the impact they make with their work.
Our Values
There are many ways to shoot for a mission and vision and so, we ground ourselves in our company values to define what we build, who we hire and how we make decisions.
Chase the Long Tail
We believe that every young person deserves a meaningful career.
To do that, we aim to democratise career opportunities for all students & graduates, regardless of their background.
Be Community Obsessed
In every decision we make, we start by defining the best possible experience for our community and go deep into understanding their needs.
To deliver that experience, the world is our team, whether that means collaborating with community members, partners, or even competitors.
Build for Tomorrow
It's not just about who we help today, but our downstream impact on broader society.
We create with a long-term, system lens to scale the impact we can have on people’s careers.
Open Mind, Stay Kind
We're not afraid to challenge one another in sharpening our ability to help our community.
But first and foremost, we do so with kindness, trust & mutual respect.
Embrace Your Quirky Turkey
We strive to make play a part of work, and build vulnerable and vibrant human connection into everything we do.
Our lively & cheeky spirit ripples through our content, community & beyond.
