Business Intelligence Lead

OUR MISSION

90% of the 200 top global cities have a housing crisis and it’s too difficult for property developers to build the places we need. To keep up with demand, the property industry needs to keep evolving. 

LandTech is part of that evolution. 

We’re supercharging the whole development process by building technology for every stage of a property developer's journey towards unlocking land. We started nine years ago, with two co-founders who built a product to help understand the development potential of any piece of land – LandInsight 

Fast forward to now, and our product ecosystem is the industry standard for site sourcing and assessment, and we’re a multi-million-pound business carving a path to international success . . .first stop, Florida!  

Put simply, our mission is, “Drive tech-enabled change for developers to shape the communities of the future.”
