The site will keep its independent brand and its community of tens of thousands of monthly startup jobseekers whilst also remaining free to post jobs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Doug Monro<\/strong>, co-founder of <em>Adzuna<\/em> said: \u201cWe are thrilled at the opportunity to take Work In Startups to the next level, having watched it become an integral piece of the UK startup hiring scene over the past few years. It has been a fantastic resource for our key early hires as well as 100s of other early stage tech companies in the U.K, and based on our experience from Adzuna and Gumtree before, we\u2019re really excited about what we can achieve here. We see the platform as a rough diamond, with a strong community already and bags of additional potential to grow and improve the experience for both advertisers and jobseekers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBringing the Work In Startups brand under our wing is another step in our mission to help people find better, more fulfilling jobs &#8211; particularly within the tech community which is close to our own hearts.\u00a0 We look forward to working with the community to continue to make hiring top talent for UK startups faster, easier and better.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12926\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-12926\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12926\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Doug-and-Andrew-TC.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"730\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Doug-and-Andrew-TC.jpg 730w, https:\/\/www.adzuna.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Doug-and-Andrew-TC-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-12926\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><br \/><strong>Diana Ilinca<\/strong>, co-founder of <em>Work In Startups<\/em>, said: \u201cAdzuna is a global leader in the online job space and I am firmly of the belief that Work In Startups will benefit from their marketing and technology expertise which will help accelerate the growth of the platform.
