To help you manage your own time and energy, Electrum has benefits such as:

  • Flexible work hours
  • Onsite shower facilities
  • Daily cooked lunches and a stocked kitchen for the mid-day nibbles
  • Team socialising, hikes, getaways, and dinners
  • A generous leave policy, starting at 20 days per year
  • A recreational area with foosball, table tennis, and Fatsaks that are perfect for naps
