“One of the things I enjoy the most about VNC Automotive is getting to work in a team of very knowledgeable and attentive people. It is great fun working on new challenges while knowing that someone has your back when you need them. You can really feel the camaraderie even from thousands of miles away. My other favourite aspect is the 35-hour week. It really helps you achieve a great work-life balance.”

Location
Our HQ is in Cambridge (UK) one of the world’s largest technology clusters. Home and hub to the great and the good of global technology giants, start-ups, scale-ups and spin-outs. We’re right in the city centre, a stone’s throw from the central train station; and importantly, there is plenty of lovely places to eat, grab a coffee and socialise. The beautiful Botanic Gardens are right on our doorstep and are a great place to get some headspace during the day. Our social activities regularly make the most of our surroundings including ice skating, open air cinema, picnics in the park, punting and plenty of eating out to welcome new colleagues and celebrate our successes.
