Our Values

Our values are incredibly important to us to help people be their best at Codat but also ensure we are at our best collectively.

Useful

We believe in delivering useful technology that solves real problems for real businesses. We have a real want to do the stuff that isn't always "cool" but makes a difference. 

United

We believe that the people in the best teams push and enable each other to excel. We’re united when we have each other’s backs - when something goes wrong, we don’t blame, we work together to fix it. We embrace differences of opinion to end up with better outcomes. We don’t let our egos win.

Unstoppable

We believe that an unstoppable drive towards a single, clearly stated goal is the best way to build great things. We are biased towards action - we make informed decisions and then we act. There is no such thing as an impossible problem, just a great challenge to sink our teeth into.

How we hire

We evaluate a candidate's qualifications, skills, experience, abilities and values to ensure they are a good fit for the role and company. This comprehensive approach helps in making well-informed hiring decisions.

Recruiter Conversation

An informal chat with a member of our Talent Team. We’ll introduce you to Codat’s mission and journey so far, and tell you a bit about the team you’d be joining, and what you’d be doing day to day. Come ready to talk about your experience, recent projects, and what you’re looking for in your next opportunity. These calls are a two-way conversation, so please bring us any questions that you have so far.

First Interview

An initial chat with the hiring manager for the role, usually joined by an additional member of their team. You should expect a deeper dive into your skills and experience. Whilst we won’t ask you to complete a task ahead of this first interview, it’s worth getting ready to talk about in detail recent projects, your proudest achievements commercially, and what you find most interesting about Codat. 

Second Interview (Task/Presentation)

So far we’ve talked a lot about your knowledge and experience, but now it’s time for you to show us! We’ll share a detailed description of the task ahead of your interview, but this will always involve testing the very core skillset needed for the role. Think paired programming, a case study, or diving deep into a dataset. This is typically accompanied by a chat with the hiring manager for the role, plus a member of senior leadership for this business area, usually focussed around discussing the task, and assessing the technical skills required. 

Assessing Excellence Interview

We’ve assessed your skills and your knowledge in depth, but now we want to understand a bit more about you as a person, to ensure we can set you up for success. We’ll ask you some scenario-based questions, which are measuring the key operating principles and core values of Codat, and we’re looking for detailed, behavioral answers. Your interviewers will be two members of senior leadership, from a different team 

Offer

The fun part (for both sides!). We’ll call you and walk you through the role and package we’d like to offer you, plus equity and benefits. We’ll follow up with an official offer letter, and attach our full employee handbook. When you’re happy with everything, we’ll send you your employer contract.

Codat insiders

We want you to feel comfortable working at Codat and that you have a chance to understand more about the people that work here than what you gain from an interview. That's why we run our ‘Insiders programme’. This is an opportunity for you to book an informal chat with someone from another team to the team you are interviewing with to ask questions you want answered about working here. 

These chats are organized directly with the person you choose to speak to, are completely confidential and no feedback or knowledge of the chat is passed to the interview team so you can learn what you need and it have no impact on your interview outcome.

Rob

Implementations Lead

I joined Codat after 13 years in the corporate treasury space, looking for a new challenge in a fast-paced Fintech. As the first hire in the Implementation team, it has been a really exciting journey as I have been tasked with building out new processes and hiring a global team as we scale up the function to support our expanding client base.

Joseph

Senior technical BA 

Coming from an accounting background, joining Codat over a year ago has allowed me to utilise my knowledge in a forward-thinking environment while also continuously challenging and feeding my understanding of technology. Having recently taken up the role as a Principal Technical BA it's exciting times ahead.

Josephine

Information Security Manager

I graduated with a Law degree in 2019 and entered the world of Security Compliance. I joined Codat as their first security hire in December 2021. All of my previous roles had been remote, so I love that I can head into Codat’s London office to spend time with colleagues in person.

Nicole

Solutions Engineering Lead (US)

I joined Codat in February 2022 after working in solutions engineering and sales strategy for a financial crime and compliance company for 7+ years. I love chatting all things FinTech, payments and New York City dining!
