Working at Blacklane: We prioritize fostering a strong company culture that promotes collaboration, innovation, and meaningful connections among our employees. Our offices in Berlin and Dubai serve as a central hub where employees come together to collaborate, build relationships, and participate in cultural events that reinforce our shared values. For our employees outside these geographies we promote having a hub life where our employees come together in their specific locations as we believe this plays a crucial role in supporting employee well-being, facilitating career development opportunities such as shadowing and mentorship programs, and nurturing a sense of belonging within our team.
