What we are made of:

Ambitious

Our goal is to be the leading IT talent agency in the Nordics, and we get there by improving all the time – as a team and as individuals.

Fun & Caring

Ambition doesn’t mean we take our work too seriously. Quite the opposite – our meetings are full of laughter, and people genuinely care for each other.

Competent

We value both experienced talent consultants and future recruitment superstars who have the right attitude and a constant desire to learn.

Innovative

Coming up with new things and adapting to changes are essential to keep up with the ongoing fight for the best talent – making this work even more enjoyable.

Why choose us?

Interesting projects

We work with clients in various sectors, including health tech, finance, gaming, industrial, consulting, etc. There’s a lot of variability in the projects and different client needs, also enabling various career paths for our people.

Fun & caring teammates

Our team is founded on mutual respect and bad jokes. This culminates e.g. in our weekly virtual gaming sessions and other team activities.

Support of a large organisation

Our group is full of talented people who support and improve each other. And even though we operate like a startup, as part of Barona, we also get to enjoy being part of a large organisation.

Flexibility & work/life balance

We believe in working hard but within the limits of one’s well-being. The working from anywhere model allows our people to work from home, office, or remotely from anywhere.

+ You get to enjoy typical company benefits, like health, gadgets, lunch, sport, culture & wellbeing, etc.

Our Why

We want to help our clients build the future by helping them to find the right talent.

Talent shortage shouldn’t compromise growth; Our business is to build solutions that help our clients’ businesses to grow and scale.

For talents, we want to be a trustworthy career partner that treats people with respect and confidence. We promote transparency, diversity, and dignity.

What kind of roles do we have?

We have people in various roles, such as operative, marketing, HR, management, sales, business development, etc.

However, most of our people work in one of these three roles:

Talent Sourcer

Our sourcing team takes care of the most time-consuming and often the most challenging part of recruitment – the initial part of attracting the talent. In practice, this consists of sourcing candidates from different channels and making the first contact.

Talent Acquisition Consultant

Handling the whole talent search, from start to finish. Meaning, that they specify the role with a Client, search and contact the candidates, do the initial interview, and present the candidates to the client.

In-house Consultant

Working at the Client’s premises, in-house consultants handle the whole technical talent acquisition process and recruitment cycle for the client, including internal recruiting.
