Company mission
Zoopla's mission is to become the UK’s premier property destination for buyers, renters, agents and landlords.
Our take
Zoopla is one of the leaders in the UK property market, with over 55 million monthly visits to its property portals and other property websites. The company has established strong positions in property classifieds, home, and financial services markets by innovating in product and marketing, bringing the competition to Rightmove which has long been dominant in this space in the UK.
Zoopla benefited massively from the increase in popularity of searching for homes via an online portal. The company has made several acquisitions and is focused on continued growth and innovation in a market that's increasingly mature.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Zoopla
Natalie Allen (Head of Employee Engagement)
- In the tech industry, we’re in the top 25% for all measures, and the top 5% for inclusion (based on Peakon’s industry benchmark). This is something worth celebrating, but we’re committed to keep on improving. Our goals for the next year are to put DE&I at the heart of our decisions, close our gender pay gap by 2026 and better reflect the diversity of the communities we work in.
