• Full coverage of your basic health insurance, plus a strong pension plan via a.s.r.;
• A hybrid working policy that supports flexibility and balance;
• A company laptop and all necessary IT tools;
• A full‑time position—though we’re open to part‑time arrangements if that better suits your life;
• Continuous development opportunities, guided by our Talent Development Specialist;
• A fun and connected culture, with team events, dinners, and sports activities;
• A warm, collaborative atmosphere within the Blyce family.
