Bonhams is looking for a Front-end Developer to join our The Market team

About Bonhams and The Market
Started in 2016, The Market has become one of the top online auction platforms for classic and collectable cars. In recognition of fantastic growth in the last few years, The Market was acquired by Bonhams in 2021. During that year we sold over 15 million pounds worth of cars on our platform and are on track to reach our target this year.

Since 1976 Bonhams has been established as the most experienced and consistently successful house in the international Motor Cars, Motorcycles, Spares and Automobilia auction world. Bonhams has dedicated auction departments in London, Paris, Los Angeles, New York, and Brussels, and thus demonstrably has larger Motor
Car presence and greater specific expertise than any other European or American Auction house.

In 2022 we're making a significant push to expand our reach, audience and brand recognition. Last year we launched in Europe and the United
States with positive growth across both continents.

With Bonhams' support we're continuing to grow our entire team and to meet the demands on our platform we're hiring experienced developers.

About the team
Our small development team maintains a flat structure and a relaxed atmosphere. The team is very open and welcomes discussion and questions. Being entirely remote we're very keen not to limit the time allowed for discussions and chat- remote working shouldn't be lonely.

Group testing and pair programming is a common occurrence.

We understand life is complicated and sometimes needs to come before work- remaining flexible is a key
value to us.

The Market has a wealth of experience amongst its ranks, particularly in the automotive industry, and building
online products. We utilise all this experience to act with agility and autonomy.
