We're hiring
At Elder, we’re building a future where everyone can age with confidence, security and dignity. If you want your work to have real purpose – and to join a team driven by impact – you’re in the right place.
Our mission
Our mission is to reinvent what it means to age.
At Elder, we believe getting older shouldn’t mean giving up choice and independence – even when you need care.
In a world where social care remains one of society’s biggest challenges, ensuring people get to live their own lives, on their own terms, empowers everything we do. It forms who we are, the way we take action, and how we learn and grow together as a team.
Why work at Elder?
At Elder we always set out to find the best. However, the best doesn’t always mean the most experienced. The best are those who don’t just see a role with us as a job, but as an opportunity to make a difference for vulnerable people and their families. They may not know all the ins and outs of the UK’s social care challenges, but they’re passionate about learning more. They aren’t afraid to ask questions, and get stuck in.
We’ll do everything we can to support your success too. We have varied opportunities for career progression and ensure everyone’s talent has an opportunity to shine.
You’ll be free to map your own path and grow beyond your role, with regular personal development sessions and mentoring that ensure you’re always heading towards your aspirations.
Our core values
Our values are more than words on a page – they’re behaviours we live every day, because actions always speak the loudest.
Seeking excellence

Together
We’re powered by insight, ambition and purpose. We work together at pace, and ensure everyone has a voice.
For our society
We value those who care, and we’re working to change society for the better.

You’ll get your very own Mac, and if working from home, we can do a quick assessment to ensure you have everything you need – from screens and keyboards to a comfy office chair.
Free drinks & snacks
We stock our kitchen with plenty of fruit, and have unlimited tea, coffee and soft drinks to fuel you up for the day. Plus, on Thursdays we keep the beer fridge full to get the weekend started.

With savings on anything from coffee to gadgets, our partners can help your money go a bit further. Want to say thank you to someone within the company? We’ll help you send them a free surprise gift.
Stock options
You do your share of the work, so it’s only right that you should get your share of the success. Everyone who works here gets the opportunity to own a stake in the company.
Rollover holiday time
We all need a good break, so with Elder you’ll get 25 days off a year, plus bank holidays. If you don’t use them all up, you can carry some over to the next year too.
Pension scheme
We know the importance of getting our finances in shape for when we’re older. It’s why we help contribute towards your pension.
Referral scheme
Know someone who would be a brilliant fit here at Elder? As an Elder employee you can earn bonuses each time you successfully refer a new member of the team.
Our culture
Our culture is created by our people – our differences shape better conversations, and better opportunities for everyone. At Elder every experience, passion and talent matters and deserves a space to shine. So, we ensure everyone has a voice, and feels empowered to own, solve and create things they truly care about.
Honesty is important to us too. We’re always transparent about our progress and encourage feedback from everyone, regardless of their role. We believe that to move forward we all need a clear picture of what lies ahead, and an understanding of how we can each make a difference.
Ultimately, whether we’re sharing ideas, supporting each other’s development, or celebrating at a company social, we’re a collective. Every person at Elder even has the opportunity to own a stake in the company, because we’re in this together.
