About Oxwash - come and join the washing revolution!
💧Our mission at Oxwash is to permanently eliminate the impact of washing on our environment, our clothes and us. We are driving towards net-zero carbon emissions and revolutionising the laundry industry from our locations in Swindon, Oxford, Cambridge and London (Battersea).
We are a green tech start up and have raised over £15 million to date. Our Series A funding round, led by UNTITLED VC partners Magnus Rausing (Tetra Pak) and Bertie C. (ZuluForest), closed in August 2022. We are also backed by other notable investors including Reckitt, the corporate organisation that owns the stain remover Vanish and disinfectant brand Dettol. We’ve set our sights on growing our sustainable laundry platform for UK customers and expanding overseas in the US in the years ahead.
Data powers both our customer-facing web app helping customers arrange the collection, delivery, and payment for their laundry; and internally-used tooling to help our operatives (laundry and delivery staff) manage their workload. Behind the scenes, our data is also responsible for driving growth marketing, operational efficiency and strategic decision making.
At Oxwash, we believe in fostering an environment that is friendly, open, and fun. We value candid feedback and the exchange of innovative ideas. We are looking for a driven Senior Data Analyst who aligns with our culture and is ready to make an impact in our dynamic team.
If you like the look of this role and identify with our mission then apply to work with us. You could be a part of the only laundry and wet-cleaning company in the world that is a Certified B Corporation®!
