kennek

Kennek is at a relatively early stage of its development which gives the team an opportunity to trade ideas to shape the company and its product in an exciting and meaningful way. Contributions from every team member are encouraged and valued and feed into the strong vision for the future.

Kennek is innovative and as we build ideas there is an exceptional opportunity to learn about all aspects of the business across Tech, Data, Product Development, Sales and Finance to name a few. It is a great mix which is rare to experience.

Our product is innovative and is creating a great deal of interest across many parties. We have fantastic ideas and are building these swiftly into our offering. It is an exciting point to be at.

At kennek, I've been given the opportunity to work across different areas of the business - everything from Product to Sales to Strategy. This has provided me with a unique insight on what makes a business tick, and has meant that there is a rarely a day where I feel I haven't tackled something new. As someone still relatively early in their career, I've found this particularly valuable.

At kennek, we're a fast-growing but still small team. This means that we need to be super efficient when it comes to how we spend our time - what I love about this is that I no longer spend my time on meaningless, "spin-the-wheels" tasks (which I often felt like I spent a lot of time on in my previous role at a big multi-national!) Everything I do feels like it has it a tangible impact on the business, and I feel like I'm really making a difference.

For me, one of kennek's greatest strengths is the management team. The three co-founders Thibault, Xavier & Edmund are all incredibly knowledgeable about the lending space, and passionate about working to revolutionise it through kennek. Their energy and vision is pretty infectious, and definitely contributes to the sense of working on something meaningful. Separately, I've also found the management team to be supportive - if I have an idea, or there is any area of the business I want to work on, they do their best to listen and responsive to my suggestion.

The founders of Kennek always engage with team members by providing support, motivation and direction. There is strong leadership with passion for the product and always showing the team the bigger picture.

Kennek has developed an innovative product by identifying a niche in the alternative lending market. Product innovation at Kennek has been the result of the collective expertise of the team and technology partners.

The management team at Kennek are informal and approachable. They are happy to share their knowledge with the team. I can see where I fit into the bigger picture and I feel valued. There is no concept of 'them and us' I always feel like I am part of one team. I am included in meetings with the sense of trust and inclusion. The management team consistently communicate their strategy and direction. Working in an open plan environment means you are close to what is happening at Kennek as a company.
