What is Zolo
Home transactions are confusing, stressful, and difficult. They shouldn’t be. Old school real estate sites aren’t up to the challenge of making it better. That’s where we come in.
Zolo helps people confidently take the next step in life by making the home journey easier, transparent, and exciting.
One of Canada’s most popular national real estate marketplaces – more than 12 million home shoppers use Zolo each month to buy, sell, rent, finance, and learn about real estate.
The team is composed of technology industry veterans from companies like Uber, Kijiji, and Zillow, award-winning journalists, and experienced real estate professionals. Founded in 2012, Zolo is a profitable growth company helping Canadians with all steps of homeownership.
How you’ll work
Born as a digital-first company, Zolo offers a fully remote work environment. Slack and Google Workspace are the primary ways to collaborate. The family-first culture allows for convenient work and home integration. Never miss family events again.
Focus time is sacred. Operate a flexible calendar with minimal meetings.
Your efforts will have an outsized impact on the happiness of millions of Canadians.
