OuR TEAM
Our brilliant team is the magic in the machine. From our founders to our front-of-house stars, we’re all here to make work wonderful.
A maestro of composure and creativity, Eyal seamlessly blends his background in customer service, his passion for music composition and a dash of acting flair to embody the ideal Front of House member.
With a knack for remaining cool under pressure, Eyal orchestrates his tasks with precision, much like his compositions for film and television. When not crafting melodies, you can find Eyal unwinding at the cinema, enjoying the latest blockbuster, accompanied by his familiar, Reggie.

Moni has two middle names; Diligence and Efficiency, and she lives up to both with astounding skill.
Even with a name like Moni Diligence Efficiency, her greatest attribute is still how she leads with her warm-hearted nature - making anyone who comes into the space feel welcome and cared for. This doesn’t take away from her status as an email warrior, however, and if you look up the definition of “on-it” in the dictionary you’ll find a picture of Moni.
Moni makes work wonderful through her work ethic and general togetherness, she also makes a great cuppa!
The true master of Calm, Flea embodies the virtue of composure over in our Hove location.
Flea’s career has led them through teaching, retail and customer service, so there’s very little they haven’t seen or heard. Although you’re welcome to test their knowledge with a cracking story.
Outside of PLATF9RM they’re a killer makeup artist specialising in film, TV, theatre and SFX makeup. As an avid horror movie buff, Flea dreams of developing their own project one day, creating something truly blood-curdling, horrorphiles beware!

Our resident flavour aficionado Jacob has mastered the skill of facilitating a productive and enjoyable work environment,
He mixes his background in bartending and air stewarding, along with a certain je-ne-sais-quoi, to embody the spirit of vibe creation and location coordination his role requires. Jacob is known for being at one with nature, both in and out of the office. Some have referred to him as the printer whisperer, which unfortunately makes the coffee machine incredibly jealous, but hey, that’s just the way the keyboard clacks.
Jacob makes work wonderful by making every interaction a moment to remember.
