Why We Pay our Drupalers to Relocate to their Dream Destination

A special note:

SystemSeed, a multinational Drupal agency is once again growing! Because this role is so critical to the team, we would like to leave no stone unturned. Also, because every one of our team members is critical to the success of the team as a whole, we are doing something different.

At SystemSeed, we have always been a completely distributed team - enabling our teammates to do their best work from anywhere in the world. We’ve found that sort of flexibility helps people explore their ambitions, whether that be career development, personal development, or simply seeing the world without letting their “job” get in the way.

That is why we have decided to literally pay our staff to move to that dream destination that they always wanted to live in. We are making this financial commitment because the type of loyalty we want to build with our team requires trust and it requires a give and take relationship. We have simply decided to go first in the giving department.

Starting with our Senior Drupal Developer position outlined below, we are now offering to pay a relocation allowance so that they can pursue personal growth along with career growth. Is there a caveat to the offer? Yes, the relocation needs to be within +/-2 hours of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This is important to ensure there is ample overlap with the entire team to enable us to best serve our clients. But hopefully joining SystemSeed will now become a significant opportunity for more reason than one.
