Overview

Founded in 2017, Workee offers a lightweight, mobile-first application that matches job-seekers with companies in their immediate vicinity, streamlining the hiring process for roles in restaurants, retail, construction and other service sectors. Its user-centric design addresses modern employment trends, noting that about 65% of service-industry workers prefer mobile devices for work-related tasks and that ‘job near me’ searches grew 2,500% between 2014 and 2019. Well-known brands such as 7-Eleven, Rema 1000 and Aldi hire through the platform, with customers praising Workee as the fastest way to close openings. The company embraces a “Less is more” ethos, focusing on simplicity and speed for both employers and applicants. With a fresh capital injection of 2.25 million DKK (€300K), Workee plans to strengthen its position in Denmark and expand its features for large recruiters. Management expects the funding to help thousands of Danes secure employment within minutes as the labour market rebounds from pandemic pressures.
