Bid Writer

Neuron is the leading shared micromobility operator in Australia, Canada, and the UK. We partner with cities to connect people and places in a safe, convenient and fun way. We are driven to help the world build a more prosperous and sustainable future through new ways of moving and connecting.

Neuron launched the world’s first docked e-scooter in Singapore in 2016, and the first shared e-scooter programme in 2017. We develop our own industry-leading e-scooters, which are purpose built for sharing and safety. We also set the industry standard for technology that manages them. Neuron has launched an impressive range of world firsts, particularly when it comes to safety. We currently operate in over 30 cities globally.

Our Values

Make It Happen

We strive to deliver results with the highest impact and are committed to following through. We continuously optimise through collaboration to achieve the best collective outcomes.

Be Proactive

We seize the initiative and are always looking for continual improvement, for ourselves, our team and the cities we serve. We relish the chance for action even if it leads us outside of our normal scope.

Trust Facts Over Opinions

Our decisions are evidence-based. We assess situations fairly, wherever possible using reason and logic rather than unverified opinions.

Stay Curious

We ask questions, challenge assumptions, learn from mistakes and are ready to leave behind what we thought we knew.

Do More With Less

We understand that both time and resources are finite. We balance our priorities and think strategically about how we can maximise our impact and the return on investment.
