Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

Giftcloud, part of the Groupon family, provides businesses with a platform to deliver innovative digital campaigns to engage, reward and acquire new and existing customers. 

Launched in 2014 as Europe's first entirely digital gifting app and website, Giftcloud enables users to get instant access to digital gift cards and works with some of the UK's biggest companies and brands to deliver fully digital rewards and loyalty solutions. 

Innovation is at the heart of everything we do at Giftcloud, and our entrepreneurial spirit continues to thrive alongside our growth. We're hugely proud of our award-winning team, and the successful candidate will be given every opportunity to grow their skill set and advance their career in our forward-thinking and ever-evolving company.
