Jobin

Jobin, a Madrid-based company founded in 2015, operates as a digital marketplace connecting homeowners with trade professionals for home repairs and renovations. The company was established by co-founders Jorge Oliveros (CEO), Guillermo Angeles (CTO), and Alex Tebar (CPO). Oliveros, who holds degrees in Business Administration and Law, previously gained experience as an investment analyst at Mediaset España and founded two other ventures before launching Jobin. The platform aims to digitize and bring transparency to the traditionally opaque home services sector.

Jobin's business model is centered on a mobile and web-based application that serves both homeowners and professionals. Customers can post a job request for a wide array of services, including plumbing, electrical work, painting, and gardening. In response, they receive up to three quotes from local professionals, allowing them to compare prices, experience, and user ratings before making a selection. For professionals, who the company calls "Jobers," Jobin offers a dedicated application, "Jobin Pro," which functions as a lead generation tool. The company's revenue is generated by charging professionals a fee, ranging from 2 to 24 euros, to contact potential clients through the platform. The service is free for homeowners. The platform also includes an integrated chat feature for communication and its own payment system called Jobin Pay.

The company targets a broad client base, from millennials needing simple services to homeowners aged 35-55 undertaking larger projects. Jobin has pursued partnerships with SMEs and has an agreement to provide installation, renovation, and transport services in several Brico Depòt stores. Since its inception, Jobin has secured an undisclosed amount of seed funding in a round on November 5, 2018, from investors including Conector, Keith Ventures, and Startupxplore. The company has expressed ambitions for future expansion into European and Latin American markets.
