Acre is rebuilding the UK’s £1.4 trillion mortgage market from the ground up, with a completely new, end-to-end management system for mortgages.
Our platform cuts out the unnecessary admin, pain and friction from buying a home. We're covering the entire journey, from figuring out what you can borrow, to getting your keys. We're guided both by the voice of real home buyers and by our close relationships with brokers, lenders and insurers.
Over the past year, mortgage submissions through our platform have grown by 200%, a clear sign that we're helping mortgage businesses scale faster and smarter. As we continue to grow, we're looking for ambitious people to join us in transforming the industry and shaping the future of home buying.
The start of 2026 has already been exciting, as Acre is now part of The ClearScore Group. This partnership strengthens our ability to innovate and deliver the best mortgage and protection platform.
The Role
We are looking for a graduate with a passion for frontend development who wants to be a part of a fast-growing startup that is transforming the way we buy homes.
Your role will be to work closely with the engineering team to help build out platform in a manner that is highly reliable, consistent and secure.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will be highly motivated, be technology agnostic and be proud of the work you produce.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll be joining our Frontend team who are responsible for the design, implementation and testing of the user interfaces that empowers consumers, brokers and operational functions to efficiently manage the home buying process.
As part of your role, you'll get the chance to work with modern and reliable frameworks and languages. You will have the chance to deep dive into React to write our components, use Typescript to make sure we have strongly typed JavaScript, and Apollo and Context for our state management. These will be your bread and butter, but sometimes you will also come across some RxJS and some Handlebars, but not to worry, the team are on hand to help you.
You will be expected to write reusable, tested and efficient code that is always production ready and to be responsible for the whole lifecycle of the components you build.
Who You Will Be
- Passionate about software engineering and about delivering a quality product.
- Have an understanding of automated testing platforms and unit tests.
- Have an understanding of security and reliability concerns.
- Experience of a range of languages, frameworks and patterns.
- Have a 2:1 or higher degree in Computer Science, Mathematics or other scientific disciplines, or equivalent experience.
