AboutBinary Spiders

We are an inclusive LGBTQIA+ friendly studio located in Milton Keynes, United Kingdom.

We have a relaxed but productive working environment with emphasis on making sure our team have the space they need to get the job done.

Serious about our work, without being performative!

Our Culture

Relaxed and inclusive. We pride ourselves on a very engaged and staff-centric workplace. Teams are not siloed away from one another, and we have a cooperative attitude towards self-improvement.

No unnecessary hierarchy. We believe unnecessary middle management can get in the way of delivering great projects, so we allow you as much autonomy as possible.

Results driven. We measure how the team is performing by what we're able to deliver to our clients. Delivering high quality work results in rewards such as bonuses and raises.

Fair and equal pay. It should go without saying, but people at the same role should be paid the same. We use a level based system, meaning you have meaningful metrics to improve and reach the next pay bracket.

LGBTQIA+ friendly. People are people. It is basic human decency to allow others the right to their identities.

Wellness

Work remotely. As a studio built around accessible working, you're able to work from home three of five days a week for on-site roles. Remote roles are completely remote, with optional on-site events.

Flexible working hours. We have a flexi-time policy, the only limitation being you work the core hours of 11:00 to 14:00 and complete a full work-day.

Healthy Lifestyle Scheme. Every person receives £50 a month allowance (non-accruable) to spend on health related products and services, such as fitness equipment / tech and gym memberships.

No crunch. You will never be required to work more than the allotted hours in a week. Optional overtime does exist from time-to-time for those who'd like to earn extra, but this is approved on a case-by-case basis.

Benefits

Paid time off. Twenty days of holiday a year, plus public holidays, maternity, paternity, adoption and sick leave.

Performance bonuses. Going the extra mile should always result in benefits to the worker. We pay performance based bonuses regularly.

Save As You Earn (SAYE). We have a Save As You Earn bonus scheme, which is tax free – at the end of the scheme you can take it out as a direct cash payment or for shares in the company.

Transportation Assistance. We cover all reasonable fuel expenditure, rail cards and/or bus passes for you to be able to come into the office.

Relocation Assistance. If you need to relocate, we may be able to help! We can assist with your relocation to a nearby area, including assistance finding housing, travel routes and more.

Career Development

Varied projects and tasks. We know working on the same thing week-on-week can be draining, so we aim to keep things fresh!

Transparent progression in your career. If you want to know how to take the next step, just ask - we can work with you to develop your abilities in a measurable way.

On the job training. We provide guidance as you work, helping you learn new transferrable skills.
