Life at Five Lives
While we are working remotely, flexible working to us means giving full autonomy in how and where we work. We are welcome to work from home or any other location and free to organise our day around your responsibilities.
We trust one another to fulfill our missions, and don’t believe in micro-management. However, since our team members live in different time zones, we make ourselves available during our Core Hours.
We're a remote-first and geographically diverse team, which means that emphasising communication is of major importance to us. We prioritise instant messaging through Slack, calls for urgent or detailed matters and email for less urgent queries.
While working remotely, we aim to cooperate seamlessly through our many tools. Once every quarter, we meet in person for a week in a new location. This is our opportunity to do some team building and brainstorm new ideas together.
Team building remotely We believe teams are more than just about doing good work, they're about relationships too. Aside from our quarterly meetings, we host remote coffee socials, book club gatherings and monthly virtual socials!
Women at Five Lives.
"As a mother, I always tell my children there is nothing a girl can’t do. As a scientist and product manager, I love doing purposeful work and aspire to help people decrease their individual risk of cognitive decline and dementia."
Liron Jacobson
Head of Product and Science
“I would advise anyone who wants to pursue a career that does not fit in society’s bubble of what a woman should be to not be afraid of their goals and chase their passion no matter how impossible and unfitting it may seem.”
Ramsha Ghanchi
Quality Assurance Manager
“Find a cause that you’re passionate about and be confident that you have the right to be in the room and to be heard.”
Clara Bauby
Head of Partnerships
“If there’s ever a choice to be made, take the route that expands your opportunities. Don’t just stick to what you're good at; you’ll be good at other things too.”
Jennifer Barnett
Senior Scientific Advisor
