Make a positive difference
Our planet needs help. Krystal exists to make it a better place. Being the best at what we do helps us fulfil that purpose. In October 2021 we pledged to plant or protect a billion trees by 2030. We’re also a Climate Positive Workforce, so we’ll offset your ongoing carbon footprint (home, personal travel, holidays, food, hobbies and more) - just for being a member of our team. If you want to be part of the solution to the climate crisis, you’re in the right place.
Work with like-minded people
Working with like-minded individuals makes each day at Krystal fun and exciting - a place where you can be yourself. We’re friendly, open and encourage you to be your best, because we take pride in being the best at what we do. We also love our tech. Deeply. If you do too, you’ll find plenty of people here ready to share in your enthusiasm, whether it’s gaming sessions, the never-ending Mac v PC debate or comparing GitHub repos.
Celebrate diversity
Krystal is committed to maintaining a diverse workforce and an inclusive work environment. Our approach is shaped by a strong respect for each individual within the team. We want you to do your best work and we value diversity of opinion and background. We welcome applications from diverse candidates.
Work in a relaxed, casual environment.
We work remotely at Krystal, so use a wealth of technology to keep in touch with each other throughout the day. We trust you to do what’s needed, so grant you real autonomy. We’re also human beings with families and we understand unexpected things happen, often at the last minute. We pride ourselves on our empathy and base our work relationships around kindness and respect.
Party!
We try to regularly get the whole team together for special events including the annual Krystal birthday party and of course Krystmas (™ pending). We pay for travel and accommodation for our staff to ensure everyone has the opportunity to join and we try to offer a diverse range of events throughout the year to ensure there is always something for everyone.
Innovate and get creative
Krystal is great people, great technology, in that order. So we encourage you to learn, adapt and to grow with our full support. We love independent thinking and open discussion and our flat organisation structure means any ideas will go straight to the top. You’ll be a part of a growing company and you’ll see your own ideas potentially implemented and your work directly contribute to the company's success.

“The driving force behind my joining Krystal was the company ethics and the attitude of the whole team, I knew I’d be helping customers and could go the extra mile unrestricted when needed in the interest of the customer. Everybody within the company is valued and you genuinely feel like you’re a part of the success when you see it growing. With employees spanning the length of the UK there’s a good variety of people, great progression and rewards for those that work hard.” Kris Support Technician
“Krystal is a gem of a company to work for - you really do feel valued, and this helps you give the best experience possible to our customers. I’m also always learning and developing new ways of tackling queries that come up. Also, even though the team are based all over the UK, I feel like I’m working in a great team environment, where I’m rewarded for success & hard work but can also have a laugh too. Overall, I love it here, if you’re motivated, hard working and a team player, you’ll feel right at home!” Mike Support Technician
“I can honestly say that Krystal is the first company I have worked for that is truly customer and employee focused, employees are challenged to take charge of personal development so you can expect to learn new skills quickly and be persistently rewarded for doing so. Our team is like a family and we regularly have meets where employees can meet up, relax, and have a great time.” Jordan Support Technician
