Careers at Belu
Belu is a fast growth social enterprise with a purpose that makes all of us at ‘Team Belu’ think differently about the way we work. We're on a mission to change the way the world sees water. Check out our latest impact report https://belu.org/impact-report/ to see what we mean.
We’ve also…
• Given WaterAid over £5.5 million since 2011 to bring clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene to everyone, everywhere
• Established partnerships with Rivers Trust and Canal & River Trust to support our commitment to water stewardship, by investing in nature based projects
• Cut our carbon intensity by 69% since 2010 and continued to reduce emissions by 5% each year
• Welcomed new people to Belu, doubling the size of the team since 2022
• Started selling direct to consumers through our website and partners like Milk & More
• Trialled a refill scheme with doorstep deliveries using CleanCell technology
• Taken Belu global, starting in Hong Kong
• Brought a new line of tonics and mixers to market

We are a small, high-performing team, we make the most of technology to stay connected, manage business operations, and deliver a best-in-class service for our customers. To reach our global growth and impact goals we welcome new ideas, networks and ‘ways of thinking, creating and doing’ to the team.
We offer all the usual work benefits, all of which are progressively enhanced to support an equitable, diverse and inclusive culture. We are a flexible, hybrid-working team. We have an office in Borough Yards (London Bridge) where we are surrounded by our customers; to make the most of this, these roles are London/Office based but there is no mandated use of the office.

📣 Mission & Purpose
I have never worked for a company that lives by its values like Belu. They are true to their word, choosing people and planet over profit every time.
📖 Opportunities to learn
Due to the nature of our environmental and social purpose - the opportunities to learn at Belu are infinite throughout the company. It is such a professionally run business but still relatively small, that I have learnt so much about how to run a company at both a strategic and an operational level.
😎 Autonomy
Huge autonomy given to everyone at Belu but beautifully balanced with support, whenever you need it.
Overall
Belu is a fantastic place to work for committed, hard-working and driven individuals. It is a fast-paced environment and no days are ever the same!
I could not have wished to work for such a fabulous company, amazing leadership which cascades right through the company. - B

📣 Mission & Purpose
Most companies say they have a Mission & Purpose that is not linked to making a profit. And while Belu still wants to make a profit, it's not for their shareholders, or to pay big bonuses to their CEO's and Directors. It's to go into the development of other people's lives Via Water Aid
👩👧👧 Team members
We all support each other, no matter our roles we can all lean on each other for help. No matter the subject area we will try to connect each other with people that help.
🥰 Employee recognition
Fri-yays! Our opportunity once a fortnight to shout out to people we work with, internal and external. It's a chance for us to say thank you to everyone, spreads the thank you's around and finishes the week off as a positive.
Overall
Belu is a company that prioritizes creating a supportive and flexible work environment for its employees. The emphasis on supporting individuals in achieving a well-rounded balance in their lives is commendable, as it recognizes the importance of work-life balance and personal fulfilment.
By acknowledging and accommodating the diverse needs of employees, the company fosters an inclusive culture that values individuality, with other accommodations such as flexible working hours, remote work options, or the ability to adapt work schedules to personal commitments. Belu creates an environment where I feel valued and supported in all aspects of my life.
