Role
Who you are
- You are an engineer-at-heart and can leverage your technical skills as required
- You focus on business outcomes and the health of your team, and see other things as secondary
- You are an experienced manager and have been responsible for the full employee lifecycle from recruitment to off-boarding. You’ve dealt with conflict, managed promotions and performance processes
- You know what a high performing team looks like and the ways to create and maintain one
- You are product minded. Having worked in a product led organisation you have demonstrated experience identifying and implementing work that positively impacts the user
- You value relationships with Product and UX partners and can represent the engineering function with confidence and authority
- You embrace uncertainty. You are comfortable working in ambiguous situations and can create clarity from them. As an expert communicator you can break down complex problems and discuss them with stakeholders at all levels of the business
- You are mission driven. We are making a difference to the lives of thousands, and this drives us forwards every day
What the job involves
- 🤼 Leading & Motivating People
- You’ll lead engineers from Apprentice to Senior level in one or more cross functional squads, ensuring these squads are high performing and delivering business impact in a sustainable way
- You’ll build and maintain the structure of your squad, managing recruitment, performance and retention to set it up for long term success
- âš™ Driving Engineering Quality
- You’ll support engineers in aligning technical and product approaches with business needs, keeping sustainable delivery and a focus on business results in a healthy balance. You’ll need to understand what trade offs are being made and lead discussions to help your team arrive at “right-sized” solutions
- You’ll use your strong product and business acumen to spot emerging opportunities, and use the skills of your team and the cross-functional relationships you’ll develop to capitalise on these effectively
- 🏆 Ownership & Impact
- You’ll embrace productive conflict and remove blockers to drive your team forward. You aren’t afraid of making quick, data-driven decisions to keep up momentum
- You’ll demonstrate high ownership for your squad and the work it produces, and institute practices to continually optimise both of these over time

Multiverse positions itself as the upskilling platform for AI and tech adoption, partnering with over 1,500 companies across the UK and US (including Google and Facebook) to deliver a new kind of learning. This approach is grounded in applied, work-based training designed to deliver measurable outcomes. And these apprenticeships are open to individuals of any age or career stage and focus on critical capabilities in AI, data, and tech skills.
And the impact is real. Multiverse learners have driven over $2B in ROI for their employers by directly applying their skills to improve productivity and performance. The company's success is not only reflected in its outcomes, but also in recognition, having secured significant funding in 2022, bringing its post-money valuation to $1.7B and cementing its status as the UK's first EdTech unicorn.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion at Multiverse
Serena Vaughan (Career Mobility Lead)
- We want to be a leader in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI), so we’re working hard to drive the change we want to see in the world, inside Multiverse.
- Everything we do in the DEI space is undertaken with the goal of being representative of the geographies in which we operate – and our apprentice community. Gender diversity has been a long-term challenge for the tech world. We're proud that 55% of our UK Team identify as women, this increases to 64% of our Global Leadership Team (director level and above). We're also proud of our thriving LGBTQQIAAP community, comprising 11% of our UK Team.
- We're committed to improving the diversity of our workforce, at all levels. We continue to invest in early talent through our in-house apprenticeship scheme – something we know is a fantastic route into our organization for exceptional talent from a diversity of backgrounds.
- Last year we identified improving the diversity of our Global Leadership Team (director level+) internally as an area of focus. Steps that we took included introducing robust DEI monitoring processes, rolling out Inclusive Recruitment Training to all staff involved in the hiring, and launching our first internal, Global Leadership Accelerator program.
- We’re proud that in the last 12 months, the representation of colleagues from ethnic minority backgrounds at director+ levels, globally, has increased from 6% to 19%. This is good progress but we still have work to do and are committed to building a leadership team that is representative of our colleagues and of the communities we serve.
