  • Strengthening the UK’s and the Netherlands' technical presence and involvement within the global Valtech community as well as sponsoring technical events with our partners.
  • Sponsoring 1-2 Craft Circles (Communities of Practice)

  • A number of years as a Principle Architect or Technical Director designing and delivering a wide range of innovative solutions.
  • Superb leadership skills with the ability to inspire both the customer and our teams.

What you can expect from us 

  • A competitive market salary.
  • A hybrid workplace: flexibility to combine working at home and working at our offices in Utrecht & Eindhoven.
  • An international environment that respects diversity, equality, and individuality.
  • Freedom and opportunities to develop your hard and soft skills with some help from your team captain and our Academy.
  • A comprehensive corporate benefits package that includes: pension, discounts on health insurance, travel allowance (every colleague receives an NS Business card), work from home budget (€ 60 per month).
  • Regular company days and staff social meet ups.

    Om företaget

     Valtech är en digital partner som med kreativitet, teknik och lättrörliga arbetssätt gör våra kunder bättre.

    Vi samlar olika specialister under ett och samma tak och ungefär två tredjedelar av våra konsulter har sina rötter i tekniken medan en tredjedel fokuserar på strategi, upplevelse och design. Vår kompetensbredd gör att vi har muskler att hjälpa våra kunder med ett helhetsperspektiv – från idéstadie till lansering, och även med att vidareutveckla tjänsterna därefter. 

    Våra medarbetare kommer från världens alla hörn, vilket innebär att vi kan ta lärdom av varandra och du kan alltid hitta någon att connecta med och lära dig mer av. Valtech grundades i Frankrike 1993 och har funnits i Sverige sedan 1999. Globalt har Valtech verksamheter i totalt 15 länder (45 kontor) och 3 500+ anställda medarbetare globalt. I Sverige är vi cirka 280 anställda som sitter i fantastiska lokaler i Kungliga Myntet vid Stadshuset i Stockholm samt på Kyrkogatan i Göteborg.

    Hurdana är vi då, vi som jobbar på Valtech? Som individer är vi nog ganska olika - från vår erfarenhet vet vi att homogena grupper inte alltid presterar bäst. Och i grupp arbetar vi nästan alltid! Även om vi på Valtech är olika som människor är det desto mer som förenar oss. Först och främst är vi passionerade i det vi gör.

    Tveka inte att kontakta oss om du har några frågor, eller bara vill komma förbi på en kopp kaffe och prata om dina passioner!
