Company Description

Together Ahead

Joining aDvens means joining a European leader in Cybersecurity, but above all it means joining specialists who are passionate about protecting organizations that are increasingly exposed, to help them to accomplish their often-essential missions.

It also means deciding to become part of a team that puts its performance at the service of high-impact projects (socially and ecologically).

European player on a global mission

Our 600 experts are present throughout France, Germany, Italy and Spain as well as in Canada and Tahiti. We are now established in the DACH region with an office in Munich/Germany.

Our mission to protect organizations from cyber threats guides us and drives us every day. But that’s not enough for us. If Cybersecurity keeps the world go round, then our performance must help to change it for the better.

Together and ahead of the game: since our very beginnings, we have been driven by four strong values. More than just a trademark, they're our driving force to act today and do better tomorrow: #Boldness #Collective #Impact #Integrity

What’s in for you?

• A welcoming team, training, transition, mobility – we support each project according to the desires and ambitions of each individual.
• We believe in work-life balance as a vehicle for personal fulfillment, so we have opted for autonomy and freedom in the workplace but also in the way we organize ourselves daily.
• And to nurture our precious collective spirit, our weeks are characterized by various moments of sociability and sharing... always with a backdrop of humor (more or less accessible ).
• Every day we take action on social impact projects through our fund “Advens for People and Planet” whether they’re centered on education, inclusion, or preserving the climate and environment. You have a social project you want to support? Use our internal team fundraising and collect money from colleagues and the company monthly.

As you can see, we're looking for more than just Cybersecurity experts - we're looking for committed and passionate people.
