Why Hatch
Hatch is a Sydney based tech startup founded by Adam Jacobs (cofounder The Iconic) and Chaz Heitner (cofounder Zip Co). Our mission is for all people to find meaning in work.
Finding jobs is hard work, and hiring the right person equally challenging. There’s been limited innovation in this space for a long time. Employment marketplaces still operate on industrial era principles of static CVs and job descriptions that keep people in boxes. We can do better. Much better.
Hatch is building a new employment marketplace that changes the way people and teams come together around genuine fit. We want to level the playing field so that anyone can discover work they’re a great match for, and they’ll feel alive in. Our starting focus is the early stages of someone’s career when finding the right starting point can be difficult.
Hatch is a for-profit, for-purpose business. We aim to be a global marketplace shaping the future of work, helping people pursue meaning in work for decades to come. To date, we’ve helped over 1,000 people find work opportunities at companies like Afterpay, Canva, JP Morgan, PwC, Qantas, Westpac, WooliesX and many others.
