Office Assistant

About Us

At algo1, we are reinventing one of the world’s most familiar experiences: the in-store grocery trip. We are building an AI-native product that understands each shopper, responds to their context in real time and makes an everyday experience less stressful, more personal and more engaging.

We’re backed by leading investors and founded by two entrepreneurs: one with a track record of building companies, and the other a leader in retail data and shopper analytics. Together, they have brought together frontier AI researchers and engineers, product and strategy leaders, and senior operators from major UK and US grocery businesses.

The people who join now will have an opportunity to shape the product, the engineering culture, and what algo1 becomes.

The Role

As Office Assistant, you'll be at the heart of algo1's day-to-day life. You'll be the first face visitors see when they walk through the door and a key part of what keeps the office running smoothly, from making sure meetings go well to keeping the space warm, tidy, and full of energy.

This role suits someone who genuinely enjoys people and takes pride in getting the small things right. There's scope to grow into a more hands-on assistant role over time as the team scales.
