Introduction

Deliveroo is on a mission to transform how the world thinks about food delivery. It’s no longer just about a chicken chow mein and a night on the sofa—it’s about your favorite local restaurant, dinner parties, and date nights. Over the past five years, we’ve launched hundreds of ideas, from brainstorms to global rollouts like Deliveroo Editions—bespoke kitchens hosting a locally curated selection of restaurants. Our goal is to ensure customers have access to the best food, no matter where they live.

At Deliveroo, we don’t compromise. We embrace food-inspired challenges, encourage out-of-the-box thinking, and move quickly to bring great ideas to life. Our energetic, fast-paced environment includes free-for-all Friday lunches to blow off steam. We’re bringing great food to customers in 12 countries and 200 cities, and we’re just getting started.
