Emolument.com has completed a new round of funding raising a total of $1.4m from 10 angel investors, including its historical backers.
This round of funding will enable the business to pursue an aggressive user acquisition strategy targeted at financial and professional services globally as it looks to establish itself as the leading user-generated remuneration data platform in these sectors.
Launched in 2012, Emolument.com is a crowdsourced remuneration data website aimed at professionals across financial, legal and professional services.
With over 65,000 users from 133 countries and across 18,500 institutions, Emolument provides transparency about what professionals really earn to help them make more informed career decisions.
Emolument users access 100% free and anonymous remuneration statistics about their job, and more recently new functionality also allows benchmarking against universities and specific employers.
Emolument was co-founded in 2012 by Thomas Drewry and Olivier Beau de Loménie.
