At NearU, our main mission is to make flexible working accessible for everyone - no matter their role in the business. Whether you’re a CEO or an entry-level employee, the benefits of hybrid working through NearU are boundless - if the boost in productivity reported by flexible workers wasn’t enough to convince you, it’s also significantly better for the environment.
But you’re right - we’re super biased. So why not hear straight from our users how NearU has helped them and their business?
Meet Cherelle Khassel 
Cherelle, former Crystal Palace footballer, runs her own Marketing agency, Empire Digital, based out of Portsmouth in the UK but she’s often found travelling around the country for work. As a small, largely digital business it would be unwise to suggest that Cherelle rent out a full-time Head Office, or even use a more expensive subscription based service. With NearU, she can simply pay for the spaces she needs, when and if she needs them.
We caught up with her at VWorks in Portsmouth, an office close to her home which she was able to book through our app.
“It’s changed us massively, because we go to London quite a bit, or Birmingham, and we always cram into a Starbucks or a Nando’s - being in a small coffee shop signing an NDA is just not doable,” she said. “So just to be able to jump on the app and book a working space is brilliant for us.”
In case you missed it, you can catch Cherelle talking about NearU on BBC Click, along with an exclusive interview between programme presenter, Spencer Kelly, and NearU Founder, Daniel Murray, here.
