Apply OUR MISSION
Carwow Group is driven by a passion for getting people into cars. But not just any car, the right car. That’s why we are building the go-to destination for car-changing. Designed to reach drivers everywhere with our trail-blazing portfolio of personality-rich automotive brands: Carwow, Auto Express, evo, Driving Electric and Car Buyer.
What started as a simple reviews site is now one of the largest online car-changing destinations in Europe. Over 10 million customers have used Carwow to help them buy and sell cars since its inception. Last year we grew over 50% with nearly £3bn worth of cars bought on site, while £1.8bn of cars were listed for sale through our Sell My Car service.
In 2024, we acquired Autovia, doubling our audience overnight. Together we now have one of the biggest YouTube channels in the world with over 1.1 billion annual views, sell 1.2 million print copies of our magazines, and have an annual web content reach of over 350 million.
WHY JOIN US?
We are winners of the prestigious Culture 100 award, recognising the most loved and happiest tech companies to work for. We have also raised $52 million in funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners to accelerate our growth.
As pioneers, we’re always driving for new territory and positive change. Where others see difficulty, we see possibility - building new experiences, launching new titles and listening to drivers.
Being part of Carwow Group means championing drivers and the automotive industry, acting as a disruptor, and never being afraid to fail (while learning quickly when we do).
Our team of 600+ employees across the UK, Germany, Spain and Portugal are revolutionising car-changing, and we are rapidly expanding our mission across every brand and country we operate in.
