At carwow, we’re aiming to
create the best car-buying experience in the world. Buying a car is
normally the 2nd biggest financial decision people face (after buying a
house), and it’s a hugely complex one. There are many issues people face
throughout the process, and we aim to fix them. We’re a driven,
energetic startup with a team of 200+ based in London, Munich and
Madrid. We are backed by some of Europe’s leading VCs and have raised
over £48m in funding since we launched, so we’re growing fast. We’re
constantly asking ourselves how we can make carwow better, so if you’re
curious, motivated, and want to help us change the future of car buying,
get in touch. It’s the chance to be at the start of something huge.
