The company has a strong track record of maintaining long-term client relationships and working on diverse projects, from strategic discovery to large-scale implementations.

The compensation package is competitive, with salary ranges of €50,000-€70,000 in Portugal or 55,000-75,000 SEK per month in Malmo. The company values diversity and encourages applications from candidates who might not meet all requirements but are passionate about the role.
