Team not a family

Ownership
– we collaborate closely on goals and have also ensured we have refined processes and support systems in place. Otherwise, each person genuinely “owns” their work and goals and should expect to work autonomously without someone breathing down their neck 🙂


Room for growth
– there are opportunities beyond your role to grow within our team at Janalta.

So, however you identify and whatever background and experiences you bring, please apply if this is a role that would make you “tap dance to work” every day. We would love to add your biological uniqueness to our own! 🙂
