This policy is a framework that covers the principles & processes for claiming & reimbursement of reasonable expenses while doing business for Mojo.

Overarching principle

<aside> 👉 Act in Mojo’s best interests 🙏

</aside>

We believe that Mojitos know best what expenses are necessary to carry out their roles effectively and, ultimately, make Mojo tick.

We feel that having an overly detailed policy governing the minutiae of each expense category and restrictive limits inhibits our team from making rational and agile decisions.

Therefore, we aim to empower Mojitos by reducing unnecessary bureaucracy, and we trust team leads to model what ‘good’ looks like.

However, within this flexibility, we expect Mojitos to spend Mojo’s money as if it were their own and to be responsible in (& honest about) their spending.

At the end of the day, Mojo is a startup with limited resources, so we need to be careful that expenses do not balloon out of control but can instead be directly linked with Mojo’s objectives, processes, or requirements - relevant financial controls will still be in place to ensure that imprudent expenditure is picked up quickly.

If in doubt about anything, please speak with your direct line manager or Operations Lead (Matt).
