Job Description

Here at Appointedd, we're on a mission to be recognised as the best online booking system in the world by enabling anything, or anyone to be booked (or requested) in as little as two taps! We'd love to hear from driven individuals who would be interested in helping us achieve our goals!

Who are we?

Appointedd was born in 2011 when our founder and CEO, Leah, then a busy magazine editor, found herself unable to book an appointment with her hairdressers (and who hasn't been there?). She saw a gap in the market for an easy online booking system. From that idea, Appointedd has grown into an industry-leading product, powering everything from two of the Big Four to favourite high-street retailers like M&S and Charlotte Tilbury, enthusiastically supported by a team of over 25 ambitious, talented people in Edinburgh and beyond.

Our company is being built by a team of incredible people, from a diverse variety of backgrounds. Our very own CEO started out in the theatre business; we have teachers, accountants and authors in the teams - all of whom bring their own skills, creativity and passion to Team Appointedd. We value the individual and encourage personal growth.
