BrightLocal is one of the many businesses that scammers are impersonating in order to target people with recruitment scams. They are using social media and messaging platforms like Telegram and WhatsApp to approach targets and offer roles at BrightLocal. Targets are asked to sign up to a fake website, and potentially asked to share personal and banking details. These scammers have absolutely no relationship whatsoever to BrightLocal (i.e., they are not contractors, employees, agencies, etc.) and the roles being offered do not exist at BrightLocal.
Please exercise caution when engaging with recruiters on these platforms. At BrightLocal, we only ever recruit via our website or official recruitment websites. We do not have Telegram or WhatsApp accounts, and our only website domain is brightlocal.com.
Any websites claiming to be BrightLocal that do not use our official brightlocal.com domain or up-to-date logo are unofficial and not associated with us.
If you have any questions or would like to clarify anything with us, please email [email protected].

Hear the BrightLocal story, our culture, and what it means to be a true bootstrapped company in this interview with Myles.
We believe that loving work is essential for us to be happy. If we genuinely love what we do, it brings our other beliefs to life.
We believe in caring personally for everyone around us. This means that we appreciate their individuality, respect their needs, and always show care and consideration so that we all feel safe and supported at work.
We believe that by collaborating closely and combining our strengths we will achieve incredible things that we could never achieve alone.
We believe in taking risks, being bold, and making quick decisions so that we can unleash our full potential. We are not afraid of failing because we know we will learn something that ultimately makes us stronger.
We believe in taking ownership of everything we do and being fully responsible for achieving our goals and hitting our results.
We believe that curiosity is the foundation of lifelong learning. We take every opportunity to learn, grow and enhance our strengths so that we can be happy and successful in life.
We believe that we are a better, stronger business when every opinion is shared, every idea is considered, and every voice is heard.
We believe in setting ourselves ambitious goals that require us to think creatively and innovate boldly so that we create our future.
See the heart in our logo? That’s not just there for fun—it represents the caring culture that sits at the heart of everything we do at BrightLocal, whether it’s supporting our team or giving generously to charitable causes.
We truly believe that personal and company success stems from investing fully in providing every single team member with the most positive work experience possible.
How do we do this? By providing an abundance of opportunities to learn new skills, building fantastic working relationships, acting on feedback, and supporting team members in realizing their life goals.
As expressed through our core beliefs, we thrive on cherishing individuality, celebrating success, and championing teamwork and collaboration at all times.
When we’re not hard at work, you’ll regularly find BrightLocallers taking part in a host of social activities like escape rooms, cocktail making, sailing, video gaming and scavenger hunts.
We love a having bite to eat and a drop to drink together, too, so we encourage plenty of team meals and social nights out on the town.
Why do we do all this? First of all, we’re genuinely nice people! But it also just works: our team members deliver their best work when nurtured and supported, and we boast a staff retention rate that’s the envy of the industry.
We’re confident that in BrightLocal, not only will you find a caring, cooperative company that offers inspiration and challenge in equal measure, you’ll likely find friends for life.
Our generous healthcare package includes dental cover, CBT support and free access to other complementary therapies.
Dolly Parton was half-right: working 9-5 is way to make a living, but we offer flexible hours and working arrangements to suit your life and your role.
Life is for living, so we offer BrightLocallers all sorts of opportunities to live it together, from private parties and delicious meals to games tournaments and outdoor adventures.
BrightLocal’s annual bonus scheme is based on personal, team and company targets, so we’re always pulling together in the same direction, and rewarded for doing so!
We offer a host of benefits to encourage wellness, where available. These include on-site massages, bike-to-work schemes, free flu jabs, eye care vouchers, and much more.
Put your feet up and enjoy your birthday with an extra day’s annual leave. (Don’t worry; we’ll still celebrate when you come back!)
Want to travel to visit family or explore the world? Go for it! We encourage work-life balance by enabling team members to work abroad for up to three weeks per year.
We want you to be your best self at work. That’s why we offer 5-6 company-wide training workshops, as well as a £1,000 personal training budget each year.
Who doesn’t love a cheeky discount?! We have teamed up with Perkbox to give you access to hundreds of money-saving deals and exclusive offers.
Running a leading local SEO platform is thirsty (and hungry) work, so our well-stocked cupboards and refrigerators offer sustenance in abundance.
We are a BIG believer in supporting the communities we work in, and play an active role in supporting both local and national charities.
As well as donating as a company, we also empower team members to be personally involved by allowing everyone 6 days per year to physically help a charity or community organization that’s close to their heart.
BrightLocal HQ is located in Brighton, UK. This is the nerve center of our operations, and where the big decisions get made.
Our Brighton office is just minutes away from the famous seafront and Palace Pier, and sits opposite Brighton Dome, the cultural home of art and performance in the area (if you’re not counting the array of street art Brighton’s known for, that is).
Whether you’re looking for peaceful walks on the beach or a buzzing nightlife, Brighton is a great place to live, and work, especially in the burgeoning tech sector. They don’t call it ‘Silicon Beach’ for nothing!
We Stand with Ukraine. Find out what we’re doing to support Ukraine and how you can help, too.

We are committed to creating a rich and diverse workplace that offers equal opportunities to everyone, no matter their gender, ethnicity, background or sexual orientation.
We believe that through diversity we give ourselves the best chance to identify a broad and balanced set of ideas and opportunities that will help our people and our customers achieve their goals, and our business achieve its goals.
