Working at
Ziik.io

Ziik is reinventing the intranet for the people who don't sit at a desk. We're the best-of-breed internal communication and information-sharing platform that frontline teams actually open, built for the 80% of the workforce that traditional intranets forget. From a single app, employees stay connected to their company, their colleagues and everything they need to do their job well. The results speak for themselves: 80% activation after the first month, and usage that more than doubles over the first year. Today Ziik powers communication for local heroes and global brands alike, including McDonald's, Sport24, Bastard Burgers, DFDS and Fleggaard, across retail, hospitality, transport, manufacturing and more, in eight languages and counting. We're a Copenhagen company growing fast across the Nordics and Europe. Ziik is a dense team of skilled people, each with real ownership of their work and the freedom to do it their way. We're profitable and built to last, not chasing the next round but compounding quietly year after year. We'd rather grow something that's still here in ten years than burn bright and disappear. We play the long game. Come build the platform the frontline deserves.
