**About Us** 

Transreport is a technology company focusing on improving the passenger experience across multiple transport modes and geographies.

We are well backed by two leading VC organisations and we have also won financial awards from the Department of Transport in recognition of the innovation we are bringing to the UK transport sector.  

Join us on an exciting journey and become a member of our growing team. 

**Our culture** 

Key aspects of our culture here at Transreport: 

*   Open and transparent, we share knowledge & experience, and encourage everyone to contribute so we can all learn together. 
*   We actively encourage and support self-development 
*   We are respectful to everyone’s opinions 
*   We all work together, collaborating effectively across teams, departments and locations.  
*   We strive for best-practice in all we do: treating our clients fairly and communicating transparently across colleagues, associates and business partners 

**Transreport Values for Senior Tech Talent** 

**Innovative Thinking** 

We value individuals who are constantly exploring new technologies, methodologies, and practices to push the boundaries of what’s possible, driving forward our technological capabilities and competitive edge. 

**Deep Technical Expertise** 

A strong foundation and continuous growth in specific technical domains are crucial. We seek professionals who are recognized for their expertise and are committed to staying at the forefront of technological advancements. 

**Collaboration and Communication** 

The ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams and communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders is essential. We appreciate those who can bridge the gap between tech and business, fostering mutual understanding and alignment. 

**Problem-Solving Mindset** 

Facing challenges with a solution-oriented approach, leveraging technical skills to devise effective, efficient, and innovative solutions to complex problems is highly valued. 

**Adaptability** 

The tech landscape is ever-evolving, and so is our business. Professionals who can quickly adapt to new technologies, tools, and business directions while maintaining high performance are ideal for our team. 

**Values Less Aligned with Our Needs** 

**Technology for Technology’s Sake** 

While passion for technology is important, applying technology without a clear business case or user benefit does not align with our goals. We prioritize practical, impactful tech solutions. 

**Working in Isolation** 

Though deep work and focus are valuable, complete isolation from the rest of the team or organization limits the potential impact of technical contributions. We believe in the power of collaboration and knowledge sharing. 

**Resistance to Broader Learning** 

Professionals who focus solely on their technical niche without considering the broader business context may miss opportunities to drive meaningful impact. A holistic understanding of how tech contributes to business goals is crucial. 

**Inflexibility** 

Being wedded to specific technologies, methodologies, or practices at the expense of adaptability can hinder innovation and responsiveness to changing business needs. 

**Limited Communicative Clarity** 

Technical expertise alone is not enough. The inability to effectively communicate ideas, challenges, and solutions to a broader audience can significantly diminish the value of technical contributions.
