Salary Competitive
Equity To be negotiated

At Teemly, we believe that the secret behind a team’s performance lies in the interaction between colleagues. We think everyone deserves to be part of a team (s)he loves, and that life is better if you spend 40+ hours per week with people you click with. We are convinced that great teams deliver great business results. With that mindset, we built a virtual office that removes the social barriers that physically distributed teams across the globe have complained about.


When Covid-19 hit, we were in the middle of our BETA product development phase. Now our product has been put to test and is yielding overwhelmingly positive reactions among our test users. As one of them said: “Teemly is our office now. It is where we work, it is much better than the systems we have used earlier. In Teemly we work together, talk ad hoc.”


As we approach our launch beyond BETA, we are looking for a Vice President Product, with a design background; eager to drive the product design together with the founders. Our small and fast-growing “teem” is spread out internationally and works almost fully remotely. We use our virtual office on a daily basis, so you will also cater to our own needs.

Working at
Teemly

Teemly is on a mission to truly connect distributed teams by introducing the world’s best virtual office. What is a virtual office? In times when colleagues are no longer physically co-located, and remote collaboration still isn’t as smooth as it could be, we think we can help by giving physically spread out colleagues a joint office. A place where you talk ad hoc, have fun and get to feel like a valued, included member of the team, regardless of your location. In Teemly we believe that none of us is as good as all of us together and that the real success of a working environment is the constant collaboration between colleagues. We believe that spending 50+ hours a week working with people you don’t click with (or you don’t like) is not a healthy work environment and that is reflected in the results of a company. With that mindset, we have built a virtual office that removes the social barriers that remote working “from home” creates. We are in expansion mode, our beta product is up & running and approaching the launch. At Teemly, things are moving fast but, don't worry, we have it under control.
