If you’ve come to this page then you’ve probably already read the basics about Showmax – we’re an internet TV service doing things differently. We love movies and series, and we believe it takes more than one-size-fits-all solutions to getting everyone watching.
Showmax is a division of MultiChoice, Africa’s leading pay-TV operator.
What’s in it for you?
When it comes to office culture, we believe people do their best work in a flat organisation that values openness and delivery, while avoiding silos and red tape. If you join any of our operations, the odds are that you’ll be working with multi-national, multi-disciplinary teams.
Showmax is based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Showmax Engineering is based in the Czech Republic.
- An exhilarating ride. We work fast and get things done.
- Learning and growth. Work with leaders in their field while also contributing your knowledge and experience to others.
- Experimentation. We have a “fail fast” ethos that values boldness and creativity, knowing that not everything will work but recognising that doing the same old things doesn’t end well.
- Freedom and support. Our culture is open and collaborative, with the minimum of red-tape.
What are we looking for?
- The best. Put simply, we’re looking for top candidates and our remuneration packages are structured accordingly.
- Delivery. We value people who get things done (as opposed to just talk about getting things done).
- Intelligent solutions. We’ve got a bunch of complex issues to solve, which is why finding simple, elegant solutions is all the more important.
- Human beings. We don’t care if you’re quiet or loud – feel free to be you. We’re not corporate robots and we don’t do buzzwords and jargon.
