Life at Acorn

Make your mark

Acorn is the hub for learning and performance for over 1 million active learners. The work you do — whether that’s writing lines of code, designing the layout of a dashboard, or talking to customers — helps real people grow not just professionally, but personally. Your work always has an impact and your impact is always felt.

Grow with us

In the space of 10 years, we’ve grown from a company of two guys developing websites to a global platform in the heart of many major organizations’ ecosystems. There’s still more to do, and we need people who are keen to help us journey into the next phase on board. And since we’re still growing, there’s so much you can learn on that journey with us.

Collaborate & specialise

We’re majorly collaborative for a reason. Every person working at Acorn has a unique set of capabilities we treasure. You can be a subject-matter expert and a team player at the same time, specializing while working across multidiscipline, diverse, and international teams.

Office-first Culture

Acorn is an office-first company, meaning we work from our local offices the majority (if not all) of the time.

We encourage our people to work in the office whenever possible as it fosters a culture of shared learning and creativity. We thrive on the daily moments that make up that culture, like the coffee run, walk to grab lunch, or quick huddles on bean bags.

Being able to capitalize on that culture is key to our ongoing success and a large part of the reason we can do work at the pace we do.

Employee Testimonials

Annie

Designer

“Working here has been such a positive experience for me because it’s more than just a job – it’s a supportive community where there’s always someone willing to lend a hand. What’s even better is that we’re encouraged to speak up and share our thoughts openly. Knowing that my voice is valued makes coming to work here every day a pleasure.”

Geordie

Customer Success

“Joining Acorn was a pivotal moment for me as I transitioned from healthcare to the tech industry. The supportive team at Acorn played a crucial role in helping me leverage my communication skills acquired from healthcare into a successful career in customer success. I’ve had the opportunity to take on a multitude of roles within the company, which has allowed me to pursue my strengths while receiving guidance where needed. My favourite part of working with Acorn is seeing our customers succeed, knowing that our efforts make a real difference in their learning journey.”

Charlotte

Marketing

“We’re constantly growing, which means our roles are evolving too. You’ll have opportunities to take on new responsibilities that you wouldn’t have thought of when you started. One thing that doesn’t change though is the people—it’s such a laid-back environment with great people that makes me excited to come in to the office every day.”
