Fresh Projects

Careers at Fresh Projects
We build thoughtful software for architects and engineers – and we try to be equally thoughtful about the people building it.

Fresh Projects is a remote‑first SaaS company creating tools that help architectural and engineering practices run healthier, more sustainable businesses. That means better visibility of fees, time, resourcing and delivery – and ultimately less stress for the people doing the work. Including us.

We’re a small, close‑knit team, and we care deeply about wellbeing, fulfilment and doing work we’re proud of. Every voice matters here. Every role matters. And the work people do is noticed, valued and celebrated.

If you like solving real problems and working closely with customers you’ll probably feel at home here.

What We Do
We build specialist SaaS products for a niche (and fascinating) market: architects and engineers. Our core product, Fresh Projects, is a financial and delivery management platform used by SME architectural and engineering practices. It covers fees, timesheets, expenses, invoicing and reporting – all designed around how AEC firms actually work, not how generic finance tools think they should.

Alongside Fresh Projects, we also build and maintain a digital contracts platform for professional bodies, including RIBA (UK) and RAIC (Canada) and SAIA (South Africa)

Everything we build is customer‑led, practical, and grounded in real-world workflows.

Why Work at Fresh Projects
People come to Fresh Projects because they want meaningful work and a working environment that respects them as humans.

Here, you’ll:

• Work on real products used daily by thousands of professional
• See the full picture – from customer problem to shipped solution
• Have a genuine say in how things are built and improved
• Build skills beyond your job title, without burning yourself out
• We’re big believers in learning through doing. When things go wrong (and sometimes they do), the response is support and problem‑solving – not micromanagement or blame. We help each other get better, rather than pretending mistakes don’t happen.

There’s also plenty of scope to shape your role over time. As the work evolves, so can your responsibilities and career path – based on your strengths and interests, not a rigid ladder.

How We Work

Remote‑first, but not remote‑only.  We’re a remote‑first team, giving you the freedom to work where you do your best work (home, kitchen table, spare room that doubles as a wardrobe – we’ve seen it all). We balance that with regular team meet‑ups, workshops and in‑person sessions to think, plan and build together.

People first
We believe good products come from healthy, supported teams. That means reasonable expectations, open conversations, and a culture where asking questions and suggesting improvements is encouraged.

Our Culture
Our culture is deliberately human, not performative.

• People first – wellbeing, flexibility and trust really matter here
• Customer‑focused – we listen carefully and build with intent
• Relaxed and friendly – professional, but never corporate
• Low process, low ego – quick decisions, minimal red tape
• Collaborative – everyone gets involved, and opinions are welcomed
• Quality‑driven – we care about building things properly (and sleeping at night)
• Good work gets noticed. Wins are shared. And if something misses the mark, we talk about it openly and learn from it – no finger‑pointing, no drama.
