Careful Trouble

Who We Are

Careful Industries was founded by Rachel Coldicutt in 2019 and has grown into a collaborative team of seven, supported by a network of talented freelance associates. We're a consultancy rooted in the belief that technology should serve people and communities, not the other way around.

We have a not-for-profit sister organisation, Promising Trouble, which is an experiment in redistributing the power of data and digital technologies: sharing knowledge, capabilities, and connectivity to build community-driven alternatives to Big Tech and platform power.

Our mission for 2022 to make sure more people have the chance to shape, inform and create new technologies — and so Careful Industries is growing. We'll be posting job opportunities throughout the year.

We're always looking for partners, collaborators, and interesting people. Get in touch if you'd like to work together.
