How's work at City Network?

We are a fast growing company both in terms of customers, revenue, and head count. This is all a good position to be in, but to be candid, just like any other company in that situation, we're not perfect. As a company, we strive to improve and perfect the structure of how we collaborate and communicate, but we're not quite where we want to be in that regard. (We do have to set a pretty high bar here for ourselves, given that our role in the market comes with a great deal of responsibility.) So, we are actively looking for people who come with an open mindset, a willingness to go the distance, and an eagerness to help us all get better. As is true for our customers, if you have specific technical expertise on an issue that another team of colleagues is working on, you should expect to be asked to contribute your knowledge to solving the problem — just as you will expect to get that same support from them, when you have an issue of your own to resolve.

What employment conditions apply?

This is a full time position, either in our Karlskrona (HQ) office, Stockholm Office or remote, with 6 weeks' vacation. We have a company policy that specifies a 6-month probation period.

I'm interested. What's next?

We'd like to hear from you! And we have a few additional questions we would like to ask you. Some of those are about your existing skills and strengths, but if one of them happens to leave you stumped, don't fret! That's totally OK. We don't expect you to bring everything to the table, we'd just like to know what we should prioritize in training.
