Culture at Vinted

For the longest time, we had a saying: “It’s the Vinted way.” We all knew it by heart, but nobody could quite put into words what it actually meant. By 2019, we realised we needed to finally define it. Around six months and 300+ interviews later, we did.

We aim high

We know the price for high standards, and we choose not to compromise. We make smart decisions and take calculated risks based on analytics, our expertise, and input from our members. We spend more time analysing our failures than acknowledging things that go well.

We take ownership

We choose to trust ourselves and each other – an environment of freedom and trust is the best place to get things done. We don’t micromanage but help people claim ownership. We take ownership of our tasks, which makes us invested in and accountable for our team’s results and Vinted’s success.

We co-create

We have a transparent and flat communication culture, no matter the position or the team. We collaborate to solve urgent problems fast and take our time to have full alignment on and analytical understanding of big strategic changes. We challenge each other in an analytical and rational way, we share best practices, and we run with each other’s ideas. We care about each other’s buy-in, so we ask for input from everyone who’s affected.

We care

We take the time to build connections with each other. We’re continually building an environment where we can be real and vulnerable. We are real with each other. We care about each other, through the good times and the bad.

We grow

We operate in the unknown where change is inevitable. We adapt to changing priorities and work at a dynamic pace. We learn by experimenting and reflecting on mistakes. We support each other by constantly giving and seeking honest and balanced feedback. We believe in limitless possibilities to learn and grow.

Making an impact

At Vinted, diversity and inclusion are built into our mission. We’re creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and cared for—because we all do our best work when we can truly be ourselves.

For us, a sense of belonging is about more than just a comfortable environment; it’s about building real connections. To build a platform that serves millions of members worldwide, we need a team that reflects the diverse communities we belong to. By bringing together different perspectives and backgrounds, we make smarter decisions and build a product that is naturally more inclusive for everyone.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging at Vinted

We create an environment of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging where everyone listens, is heard, connects, and thrives. We’re working on complex global challenges together, which can’t be solved in an echo-chamber. That’s why we celebrate and find strength in our differences.

Our demographics

Sometimes, data gives the clearest picture of an organisation. We asked our colleagues to share their gender identity to help us understand our team's composition. Because privacy matters, self-reporting is entirely optional. While we don’t have responses from everyone yet, these insights show exactly where we stand today.
