• Please include any samples of your work/projects you find relevant to the offer. 
• Fluent English is really important to us, so if it’s not your first language please demonstrate your abilities in your CV and Cover Letter
• Having a legal permit to work in Spain/Portugal/UK is mandatory and required, so make sure to state and confirm you are eligible to work in one of our offices. You’re free to join any of our offices in Madrid (Spain), Porto (Portugal) and Cambridge (UK), and we also support remote-workers that live and are eligible to work in any of the countries where we have operations. In other words, even if you match all requirements for the role and have the best skills, if you don't have the legal permit to work in one of our offices, we won't be able to include you in the recruitment process.
