We’re a technology led Q-Commerce solution provider, delivering £140m of annualised sales for our 1700 business partners. Today we have two verticals, Snappy Shopper in the growing UK convenience grocery sector, and Hungrrr in the hospitality sector.
We intend on winning market share in the UK as rapidly as possible to achieve exponential growth, becoming one of Scotland’s most notable tech unicorns in the next few years.
140 colleagues are part of our Snappy team and we’re growing fast!
Our colleagues are located across the UK, from Inverness down to Portsmouth and across to Cardiff. Some of our jobs are located in our fabulous new Dundee office right bang in the city centre with incredible views over the water.
We’re creating a culture of High Alignment, High Autonomy and High Trust to drive our growth ambitions. What does this mean?
Our vision is to democratise technology and protect local community businesses by enabling them to compete by providing a local home delivery service.
Our belief is that society is better when local communities thrive. We champion the community retailer, who’s there for the grandads, the mothers, the students, when they need a delivery from local store to door.
Our values define who we are. At Snappy we’re all about Community, from the inside out. We hire great people from all walks of life with a wide variety of backgrounds that make our business stronger. We welcome everyone at Snappy that shares our values.
We’re all about community – from the inside out.
We light up our local high streets.
We’re all in it together – one inclusive team.
We have the hard conversations in a safe space.
We deliver – fast.
We test, measure, learn – fast.
We fail fast and bounce back faster.
We go further than the competition.
We push ourselves out of our comfort zones.
We overcome the barriers in our heads.
We say “yes, we can”.
We put no limits on our growth.
We get it done with humour and fun.
We listen to our gut (and validate with data).
We don’t wait for permission.
We strive for an environment of High Alignment, High Autonomy and High Trust.
As we grow as a Company, so does our colleague’s professional growth as they learn how to constantly apply learning to scale the business at pace.
The entrepreneurial nature of our business means we get to work with people who are passionate about our community, purpose and our products. The challenges and opportunities will constantly change, which means we are all continually developing new skills – you won’t get bored or be doing the same old routine.
You’ll also be closer to where the action happens than most other companies, with the chance to deepen your commercial acumen and influence in a high-growth sector. For someone who wants to learn and develop, we put no limits on ambition and personal growth!
We’re searching for two Growth Marketing Leads to join the team at Snappy Shopper, as they move into an exciting new phase of development.
An ambitious start-up with big ambitions, Snappy Shopper work with convenience stores across the UK in order to get deliveries to customers within 30 minutes. Having recently moved into a new way of working within a “squad model”, the Growth Marketing Leads will be marketing professionals with a passion for growth, ready to deliver tangible results.
These are not your run-of-the-mill marketing roles. The business has had a lot of success so far and working closely with your fellow squad members, you’ll help raise brand awareness and bring on new stores.
Well, you’ll have a solid grounding in marketing, particularly around acquisition, activation and growth in a B2C setting (this role is effectively B2B2C).
A natural curiosity for data is a must, so it’s important that you are someone who embraces data and looks at ways it can help you plan and drive your creativity.
A growth mindset is key here – Snappy Shopper have some big plans and there’s some great talent in the business who will help you develop.
Due to the nature of these roles, they are effectively remote, however will involve travel across Scotland and the North of England as well as wider UK in time, so accessibility to these areas along with a driving licence and own transport would be essential (there is also a very generous car allowance of £7.5k).
As an organisation, they genuinely put their people first so there is an opportunity to progress with them as part of their exciting journey!

As well as working in close collaboration with our clients, and the online marketplaces, we are active members of groups that have been established to combat illicit trade. These include the Scottish Anti-Illicit Trade Group, the European Intellectual Property Office, The Scottish Business Resilience Centre, the Anti-Counterfeiting Group, and the China Britain Business Council. Members of our senior management sit on the boards of ACID (Anti-Copying in Design), the Scottish Ministerial Trade Board, and the European Union Intellectual Property Office’s Observatory Panel for SMEs, amongst others.
Each team member nominates good causes or charities that are supported on both an individual and corporate basis. Wherever possible, we support the employee’s involvement whether through time or fundraising events.
We deliver purpose-driven work from an extremely welcoming environment near the City Centre. We actively encourage the responsible use of resources, from using public transport to reuse, recycling, and, of course, a minimal impact office environment. We have benefited from the advice of the Energy Saving Trust and Resource Efficient Scotland. Our waste contractor also provides us with a monthly report on volumes and types of material and the carbon emissions avoided through recycling.
Over 80% of our employees can walk or cycle to The Lair and, pre-pandemic, 10% were using public transport as their normal daily commuting mode. Without doubt, online meetings will replace considerable miles, going forward, saving resources, time and energy. Where possible, when possible, the train remains our preferred option.
Our people are our most important asset, and their mental well-being and happiness are core to our success. We love our diverse workforce, actively embrace flexible working (even pre-pandemic!) and encourage a healthy work-life balance. We have been recognised as one of the most diverse SME workplaces in the UK and are holders of the Scottish Business Pledge which exists to promote a fairer Scotland.

We currently represent 15 nationalities and speak 20 languages. Age is no barrier, and we recruit for attitude, providing and encouraging appropriate learning and training for each and every role.
We are also proud members of IP Inclusive, a network of professionals working to make the intellectual property industry more diverse.
Our aim is to combat illicit online trade by identifying and removing counterfeits for sale. Counterfeits not only damage brands, their reputations, and revenues, but can cause significant harm to the end customer – whether as a fake toy or a fake medicine – and the consequences can be life threatening.
Counterfeiting is a significant economic and social issue.
The OECD reports that counterfeit and fake goods make up more than 3.3% of the world’s global trade. Those involved in the trade of counterfeits have been linked to people trafficking, prostitution, and drug dealing.
As such, reducing illicit trade is about much more than brand protection but also about human rights, safety, and social equity.
And this is what we do, every day.
