Senior Designer

Hello, we’re Honest 👋

We’re on a mission to set a bold new standard for mobile (and drag a broken industry into the future while we're at it).

It started with Classic SIM, our essential everyday SIM that includes bills that drop, support in seconds, and a shrinking carbon footprint.

Thousands of happy customers joined us. But we knew people still faced two big problems: rubbish signal and expensive roaming.

So we built Smart SIM, the backup eSIM that gives unbeatable signal and free global roaming. Whenever you lose signal or go abroad, you can switch to Smart SIM in just a few taps for 500+ essential apps on EE, O2, Three and Vodafone, plus hundreds of networks worldwide.

We now have more than 100,000 happy customers and you might have even spotted us getting offers on Dragons’ Den.

We’re also proud to be the UK’s first B Corp mobile network, a carbon-negative company and member of 1% for the Planet 🌎

But building the world’s best mobile network requires having the right people to help us do it. That’s where you could come in.
