We're named as one of the UK's most exciting AI start-ups by Tech Nation, recognized by the Mayor's International Business Programme and Innovate UK, and we've been featured in Techcrunch and Bloomberg as well as leading industry publications JOC , Freightwaves and Loadstar . We have ambitious expansion plans and are looking for future Rafters who are excited by rapid company growth, want to navigate challenging problems, and are eager to embrace responsibility.
