Your journey with us starts here
From humble beginnings to global growth, our dedication to people and purpose remains central to everything we do.
For over 25 years, we have been helping talents find new jobs and careers.
Academic Work was founded in 1998 by three students, among them our current CEO Johan Skarborg, who saw the job markets need for staff as an excellent opportunity to help their study buddies out into the workplace. Our first office was a boiler room at The Royal Institute of Technology (Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan) in Stockholm. Today, more than 25 years later, we have offices all around Sweden, as well as in Norway, Finland, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland.
"The Perfect Fit"
That is what we at Academic Work aim to achieve everyday, in every interaction: A perfect fit that makes people and organisations grow. Whether you are studying, at the beginning of your career, or have a few years of work experience, we believe that your drive is just as important as actual work experience and formal qualifications.
You will get to work within attractive organizations and brands, with support, training, and guidance from us along the way. With over 25 years of experience in recruiting talents, we know how to invest in your next step, whatever it may be.
Our commitments
For us, it is important to take responsibility when it comes to the impact on the society and environment around us. We have chosen to focus a large part of our social engagement to the Response Network, an organization that operates in southern Zambia. When it comes to our environmental work, we work proactively to minimize our climate impact through an environmental thinking in our daily work. It is also for this reason that you can read this information in your computer or phone and sign your employment contract digitally
We offer skills development within sustainability
The labor market experiences a growing demand for competency within sustainability. Therefore, we offer skills development within the area through “Hållbarhetsacceleratorn.” The course gives you insights and tools for working with environmental and social sustainability – something that will benefit both you and your employer. The course is digital, takes around 1,5 hours to complete, and you can start it at any time. You find the course on the consultant web, under "Mina kurser".
