Make a difference
At Liva, we do not go to work just to work. We are a purpose-driven company, and we go to work every day to help people live better lives. Our purpose is in our DNA, and it is important that this is also a driver for you. -
Flexible work hours and locations
We value the health of our employees, and it all starts with a healthy work/life balance. We will put in the extra effort when needed, but we also know the importance of recharging your batteries and spending time on your priorities outside work. We are flexible when it comes to working from home, but we also expect that you will prioritise to come to the office and contribute to the company culture. -
Your colleagues
We are an ambitious bunch of people, and we work hard to achieve our goals - but we do not want colleagues with sharp elbows competing internally instead of working as a team. -
Personal growth
If you have the passion, skills, empathy, and enthusiasm to drive things forward, this is more important to us than formal education. We believe in personal growth and to give people the chance of growing into new areas of expertise if they have the drive and talent to do so.
