About Heetch
Heetch started back in 2013 in the parking lots of Parisian nightclubs.
Founders Teddy and Mathieu would showcase their nocturnal ride-sharing service to young customers who had missed the last train home.
Now, our 24/7 ride-hailing app covers 7 countries across 2 continents: Europe and Africa.
From our «garage band» phase in the early 2010s to our international expansion now, the core of our DNA remains the same: we fight for what we think is right and positive. That includes drivers rights and working conditions but also creating a more responsible and inclusive way of moving from one place to another.
Interested? We’re always looking for talented and driven people to join us!
So, if you’re looking for a company with a strong culture and an unconditional love for pink: give us a shout and join the ride!
