A bit about MRM Global

MRM Global is a marketing technology company, enabling global drinks brands such as Bacardi, Diageo and Carlsberg to transform the way they support their customers with printed and digital marketing. Our innovative Hyble application enables sales reps for major drinks brands to quickly and easily create high-quality marketing materials that utilise the power of their global brands with customised and relevant messaging. The benefit to our clients is increased brand visibility and sales, through fantastic looking menus, printed marketing and digital assets. The value of our product combines easy-to-use design software, high quality templates, and on-demand printing, to give users an effective end-product in as little time as possible. Our goal is to get sales reps creating more customised marketing and selling more of their products as a result, whilst also reducing waste and saving the planet! One of the key benefits of our product is that it helps drinks brands to reduce waste from the use of mass-printed marketing. Our legacy product is currently used in over 30 countries, with our new Hyble app being rolled out to our customers worldwide in 2023. We have recently won our biggest contract yet with the largest drinks distributor in the US and as a result we are expanding our product team to help us quickly adapt and improve Hyble to customer needs.

Our Culture

Our culture reflects our rapid growth and our ambition to be the global market leader. That means that we’re a fast-paced organisation where every day is different, and the work is challenging. We appreciate that the scale-up experience isn’t for everyone. We are specifically looking for people who love taking responsibility, challenging themselves and who strongly relate to our 4 core values:

Teamwork: Growing a global company means solving some very difficult problems and we believe working as a team and leveraging the skills of a diverse group of people is the best way to solve those problems. We look for team players with a track record of working with others to achieve amazing results.

Resilience: If you're looking for a smooth ride on a freshly surfaced road, with no diversions, MRM probably isn't for you. We’re looking for people who love a challenge, can handle uncertainty and have the gritty resilience to overcome difficulties.

Humility: Being open to learn and being able to admit when you’re wrong is fundamental to having the growth mindset required at MRM. At MRM we are taking on new challenges every day and we don’t have all the answers. Those who succeed at MRM are humble with a strong desire to develop themselves and be constantly learning.

Authenticity: At MRM we believe it's essential to have genuine connections with team-mates, customers, and suppliers. We look for people that are honest, genuine and can build deep relationships with others based on trust and authenticity.
