* We're not accepting internship applications for now
We are a close-knit group of tech-lovers who work closely together to produce high-quality products we can take pride in. Each day at the office comes with new and important challenges which push us to think outside the box, improve our skills and learn continuously. Add invigorating lunch conversations, guitar jamming sessions, competitive rounds of table tennis and laughter, and you’re starting to get the idea of what a normal day looks like at YoungInnovations.
We work with national, international and supranational organizations whose work is focused on the development sector. Our diverse portfolio of clients mean that we work on global issues from data transparency to violence against women and children. We are a team of results-driven individuals who believe that to achieve the biggest impact, collaboration and innovation are key. Learn more about our projects here.
At YoungInnovations, we expect and encourage domain learning; you will learn about how data and technology are used across the breadth of the development sector and eventually, develop your own area of expertise. YoungInnovations celebrates the personal and professional growth of its employees and fosters this growth through training sessions, mentorship and both formal and informal learning. Because we believe in the power of communication and teamwork, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with incredible colleagues and gain invaluable teamwork skills.
Our employees have broad-ranging hobbies, active social lives and interesting skills which go far beyond the professional. Find out more about your coworkers here.
We take your career seriously. We are looking for people who want to join a group of dedicated, curious and hard-working professionals. Once hired, your career development becomes one of our top priorities. Together, we will create a tailored development plan, have regular one-to-one sessions to discuss progress or issues and push you to grow while asking that you help others to do the same. We will provide you with learning opportunities, leadership experience and the chance to grow your skillset in a truly international organisation.
As we’ve mentioned, we take your career pretty seriously. After our clients, you’re our Number 1 priority. We want to ensure that you excel, and we look for people who are just as ambitious and dedicated as we are. At YoungInnovations, you’ll be a part of our active learning community where in-house experts (your colleagues!) run weekly Skill Learning workshops and Knowledge Sharing sessions to help you hone your skills. You’ll take courses in areas that interest you - from data visualisation to Docker - and lead others in your area of expertise.
At YoungInnovations, we work hard and play hard for 5 days a week. As career professionals, we take our jobs seriously and use lots of brain power from Monday to Friday. That’s normal for us, and we love it. But we also love a full 2-day weekend. We believe that 5 days of hard work should be rewarded with 2 full days of relaxation and a healthy work-life balance. Come back on Monday refreshed and ready to go again - full steam ahead! - this week!
We believe that when you work hard, the little things should be taken care of for you. We’ll provide a delicious lunch for you every day, cool refreshing drinks in the hot summer afternoons and tea to warm you in the winter. We provide paid sick leave up to the national maximum, a vibrant workspace, frequent Friday rooftop socials along with annual retreats, parties and celebrations! Throw in our weekly futsal, badminton and tennis leagues together with our daily table tennis matches and you have workplace heaven!
