Columbia Road

Columbia Road is a digital growth consultancy challenging the old ways of running digital businesses. We exist to increase our clients’ revenue and help them get more customers in the digital era. Our team consists of business consultants who understand business-driven design, tech, strategy and growth. We believe in giving a lot of responsibility and freedom to our employees. There’s a common misunderstanding that happy and satisfied employees are automatically motivated employees. We don’t see things that way. Happy and satisfied employees are an important priority for us, but we think causal relationship is reversed: people are happy and satisfied when they have work that motivates them. For us, an employee’s happiness is the primary goal, not a tool for raising productivity or profitability. We want to empower our employees to become a better version of themselves and to have more of an impact on the world. We see happiness & satisfaction as end goals, not starting points. That being said we love to laugh a lot, play some tunes at the office and grab a few drinks after work. What kind of work is motivating in our context? People yearn for purpose in their work and want it to have meaning that creates value: purpose, for people and organisations, comes from making an impact on the world. Meaning & significance comes from providing value to someone else — in our case, clients. Clients (not us) define the value of our actions, always. Jobs at columbiaroad.com/careers

Billify

At Billify, we are building a professional invoice and receipt generator designed specifically for freelancers, entrepreneurs, and small businesses who need a fast, simple, and professional way to handle their billing. Every day, millions of independent professionals struggle with invoicing. They either waste hours formatting Word or Excel templates, or they overpay for complex accounting software that was never designed for them. The result? Lost time, delayed payments, and a lack of professional credibility with clients. In Europe and the U.S. alone, more than 50 million freelancers face this problem on a regular basis — a massive market that continues to grow as the freelance economy expands. Billify exists to solve this problem. Our product allows users to create invoices in under 60 seconds, with sleek, customizable templates that look professional and inspire confidence. Receipts, payment tracking, and client management are integrated into a single, intuitive workflow. Unlike traditional accounting tools, Billify doesn’t overwhelm users with unnecessary features — instead, we focus on speed, simplicity, and design. Our “secret sauce” is the ability to combine professional output with an effortless user experience that anyone can master instantly. The motivation behind Billify comes from our own frustration as entrepreneurs. We’ve seen first-hand how administrative tasks eat up valuable time that should be spent growing a business. We know the stress of chasing payments and the embarrassment of sending poorly formatted invoices. That’s why we’re committed to building the easiest and most accessible invoicing solution on the market. We believe that by eliminating unnecessary complexity, we can help entrepreneurs save time, get paid faster, and focus on what they do best. Now, we’re looking for a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to join us on this journey. As CTO, you won’t just be writing code — you’ll be shaping the future of the product and the company. You’ll help us scale Billify into a trusted global brand for freelancers and small businesses. You’ll have ownership over the technology roadmap, lead development, and ensure we continue to deliver a product that is reliable, secure, and a joy to use. This is an opportunity to join at an early stage and make a lasting impact. If you’re passionate about building simple tools that solve real problems, if you thrive on innovation and want to help millions of entrepreneurs succeed, then we’d love to talk with you.

Horaizon

Horaizon is an AI consulting and product company helping organisations turn the hype around artificial intelligence into measurable business outcomes. The problem we see every day is twofold: • Uncertainty — businesses know AI will change how they operate but don’t know where to start. • Inefficiency — companies waste time and money experimenting with generic tools that don’t address their specific needs. At Horaizon, we bridge that gap by working alongside organisations as if they were our own. We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes. Whether a client comes to us with excitement or hesitation about AI, our role is the same: to provide clarity, trust, and results, helping them adapt and scale in a future where AI is not optional but essential.
