It starts with you
We have a mission to transform the commerce landscape forever – and that sentiment starts with our people.
Based in 35 countries, Primer is made up of 120+ committed people and we're just getting started.
We’re proud to have category-leading customers join us on our journey, and we’re excited to launch more innovative products in (even) more markets. But we need your help.
Remote life, global first
Wherever you choose to work, we'll supply you with the equipment and the support you need to connect and collaborate with other Primigos no matter where you are in the world.
What's in it for you?
On top of base benefits, you get access to wellness and training budget to put towards your specific wants and needs.
Private health insurance
Working at Primer you'll have the benefit of Premium Private Health Insurance. AVIVA is our insurance supplier in the UK, Allianz, Bupa and other lead providers for the rest of the world.
Family Leave
We know that having a baby is a life changing event. Our genderless parental leave allows you to take 16 weeks at full pay, taken as you like over the period of 24 months.

Global co-working space
If you fancy meeting other Primigos, or a change of scenery, we provide a membership to access co-working spaces all over the world!
Uncapped holidays
Even though we're remote-first, we want to ensure you have a good work-life balance. You are in control of when and how you unwind and recharge.
Home office budget
As well as access to latest equipment, you'll be granted a home office setup bonus to make your workspace as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
Mental health support
We take wellbeing seriously and that includes taking care of your mental health. On top of the care you can access through medical insurance, we provide a service for extra support 24/7.
Wellbeing budget
Through Juno, you'll have access to £30 of points each month to spend on your wellbeing. From exercise, to massages to financial planning, you have plenty to choose from.
Technology
You'll have access to the best equipment to do your best work.
Our values
Our values are the result of hard-won lessons, and reflections since starting the company. We will continue to expand upon what works, and disregard what doesn’t in order to bring us closer to achieving our goals.
Primer is driven by innovation. We are rebuilding commerce from the ground up. We must be bold, ambitious and intentional with our vision.
Innovation isn't restricted to our technology - it's a mindset that every person at Primer should embrace. We all have the space to innovate to build a company that elevates the standard and raises the bar for ourselves, our teams, and our competitors.
Innovation happens best when we reflect with purpose. That means; listening, seeking feedback, and asking the right questions to our merchants and ourselves. It means tuning into our ecosystem and paying attention to the internal and external signals around us.
Every single person at Primer is an owner with personal accountability. This is our non-negotiable.
We celebrate, champion and invest in people who embrace this challenge and mindset. You own your role and operate in an environment that enables you to take decisive action, and make deliberate decisions that drive us closer to our goals.
If you work at Primer we haven't tasked you with a job. We have entrusted you with our shared mission and our collective commitment to excellence.
We are globally distributed and unity is our anchor.
To be distributed enhances our insight, perspective and reach on a global scale. Being distributed amplifies our commitment to connect, collaborate and create within the remote Primersphere.
To be unified is to trust that the people around you will know how to collaborate with you, when to champion you, and when to challenge you. Our unity is driven by empathy, high expectations, and shared purpose. We achieve exceptional results when we are distributed, yet unified. We do our best work together remotely and accelerate this when we come together in person through considerate, and intentional design.
We direct our efforts towards execution and impact. Every decision that we make is a declaration of our intent to make a meaningful impact.
Our environment and landscape shift rapidly and we're not just here to adapt. We are setting the pace for innovation in payments. Rapid pace of execution has been a cornerstone of our success and is an integral part of our DNA.
Setting the pace also means knowing when to take strategic pauses to optimise our trajectory and avoid costly missteps for Primer and our merchants.
