Welcome to the Jungle is a Paris-founded employer-branding and job-search platform that turns static job listings into immersive, media-rich company profiles - videos, photography and editorial content that show what it is really like to work somewhere. Launched in 2015 by Jérémy Clédat and Bertrand Uzeel, it pairs a consumer job-search destination drawing 3.5 million monthly visitors with a B2B SaaS suite used by 5,500+ companies to build their employer brand and manage candidates. After acquiring UK job-search app Otta in 2024, it operates across France, Europe and the United States.
Jérémy Clédat is the co-founder and co-CEO of Welcome to the Jungle, the Paris-born work experience company that has grown into a job-search and employer-branding platform used by thousands of companies worldwide. A former venture capitalist who spent six years backing media, HR and education businesses, he left finance to build a media-driven alternative to soul-crushing job boards. Under his leadership the company adopted a permanent four-day work week, raised roughly €79 million across three rounds, and pushed into the United States from a New York base. He argues the recruiting industry lacks authenticity and transparency, and has built Welcome to the Jungle around showing candidates what work is really like.
