Papernest helps customers manage their utility bills and subscriptions via its online platform. It predominantly focuses on streamlining the administration involved in moving house, like changing or cancelling water bills and gym registrations, with an additional service that works like a more conventional price comparison site for utilities like internet and gas. It is providing a much-needed service in what's proven to be an interestingly narrow and non-competitive niche.

• Team learning - We believe that the best way to grow as an individual is to learn from others. We therefore want to create an environment where knowledge sharing happens naturally and spontaneously, to the benefit of the team. What we do gives us energy, we enjoy doing it, and our work environment is designed to help that remain a reality
• Ambition - Papernest is the desire to tackle something huge, useful, and complex. Each one of us is driven by the desire to see our vision blossom, and aware of the difference it can make. We know what we’re trying to do is hard, but that if we get it right, the rewards will far outweigh the efforts. We are excited by first the challenge, then the reward, in that order
• Lean - We systematically address challenges with a Lean approach until we find a successful crude solution. Then we dedicate time & resources to make it perfect. It is ok to fail. It is not ok not to dare
• Caring meritocracy - Everyone is supported in his personal growth and rewarded for his achievements and engagement. We are committed to provide papermates with all the information, tools and support they need to grow and we ensure they work in a healthy and trustworthy environment
• Customer value creation - The needs of our user define our approach. We are experts in our field and know how to remain neutral. That's why our users trust us. Our customers trust us because we provide them quality advice through neutral offers considering their needs
