Financial Controller M - Permanent Contract H/F - Work With Island

Work With Island was born in 2018 from a simple observation: the office is no longer adapted to today's needs. It's complicated to isolate yourself to hold a video conference or find a meeting room.

Our mission is to bring more serenity to the working environment with our range of modular, soundproof pods.

We are transparent in the design of our products: designed by our team of engineers based in Paris and manufactured in France using eco-responsible materials.
We are also transparent in the way we distribute them, offering our customers a unique buying experience for this type of product.

Backed by leading investors such as François Blum, co-founder of LeBonCoin, Bertrand Uzeel, co-founder of Welcome To The Jungle, Eric Larcheveque, co-founder of Ledger, and Jeremy Charoy, co-founder of Lalalab, we are growing by more than 300% a year and are currently in the process of opening up new European markets.

Our commitment:

Made in France

Eco-friendly materials

Products sold at the right price
