Can you help us fix the world’s most broken supply chain?
The fashion industry produces over 100 billion garments a year. 60% end up in landfill — not because people don’t want these clothes, but because the supply chain for getting secondhand fashion from donation to resale is completely offline, manual, and broken.
Fleek is fixing this. Our mission is to make secondhand the first choice. We’re building the infrastructure powering the global secondhand clothing trade — through a B2B marketplace and the AI systems digitising the supply chain behind it.
Through Fleek, vintage stores, online resellers, and retail buyers source graded secondhand inventory directly from wholesalers and rag houses across multiple countries. Our key enabler is FleekSort — an AI model fine-tuned on secondhand fashion — that can grade, price, and categorise items with just a photo, turning what has historically been an opaque and manual trade into a structured, searchable, and tradable global inventory layer.
Since 2022, we’ve saved 9 million items from landfill and tripled in size year-on-year. We’ve raised ~$50M from a16z, Y Combinator, Burda Principal Investments, HV Capital, and others, and have recently closed our Series B. Our advisors and private investors include operators behind Depop, Shopify, and Postmates.
Today, we serve thousands of resellers and retailers across the UK, Europe, and the US. With the secondhand fashion market projected to reach $350B by 2027, Fleek is building the AI-native operational and financial backbone for secondhand commerce globally.
We’re looking for people who want to build something that matters — and move fast doing it. Sound good? Keep reading.

How We Work
Fleek is an in-office company. We believe the best work happens when people are together — the quick decisions, the cross-functional energy, the ability to solve problems in real time. Most of the team works from our London HQ 3–4 days a week.
We’re not prescriptive about it. Performance and trust matter more than attendance. For your first six months, we’ll ask you to prioritise being in the office — to learn the business, build relationships, and get up to speed. After that, you’ll have genuine flexibility to manage your own time. We hire adults and treat them accordingly.
The Practicalities
Location: London HQ — Heneage Street, E1 (Shoreditch / Aldgate East)

Stage: Post-Series B, hyper-growth
Team: 100+ across London, India, and Pakistan (~20 in London office)
Visa: Unable to sponsor visas for this role
Culture: High ownership, non-hierarchical, fast-moving. Founder-led with strong opinions loosely held.
Our Values
Five values shape how we work at Fleek:
Dream Big and Disrupt Yourself: Push the most ambitious version of what you’re building. Step out of your comfort zone. Nothing is out of reach.
Absolute Ownership: The buck stops with you. Drive initiatives to completion. Experiment, learn, persevere. The job isn’t done until the job is done.
Curiosity Leads the Way: Don’t accept anything at face value. Ask questions you don’t know the answer to. That’s how you innovate.
Talk to the Customer: Deeply understand their challenges, motivations, and ambitions. Every decision starts with the customer at the centre.
Embrace Diversity: A global team building for a global supply chain. Bring your authentic self and embrace the diversity of everyone you encounter.
