Who are Famly?...you wonder…
Once upon a time our co-founder Henrik’s daughter was ready to start at daycare. He couldn’t believe the amount of work being done on paper - and how distant he felt from his first child during the day. The paper ‘parent’ books they exchanged once a month just weren’t cutting it. Together with his friend, our co-founder and CEO Anders, they set about solving that.

That was then. Today, the 150 of us building Famly talk about trying to do two things for our many customers across the UK, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway and the US:

  • Giving children the best possible start to life.

  • Championing the vital work that goes into making that happen

Famly is on a mission to completely transform the childcare industry. We do that with software that brings hundreds of thousands of parents closer to their child’s day while they’re away from them. We also make financial, pedagogical, and planning tools for more than 34,000 childcare professionals, saving them hours and reducing their admin stress. Ultimately, that gives them more time and headspace for the little ones that really matter. We’d love for you to help us make that happen.

Famly is built on transparency, less talk - more action, and making sure the person sitting next to you, rather than yourself, is the one shining. We care about each other and the work we do, and are a close knit-team of around 150 people, from many different countries, sitting across the world. No matter where we are, whether in our Copenhagen office, Leicester, London, Berlin or Washington D.C., we like to eat lunch together every day, and celebrate with cake. Sometimes with champagne.


You’ll love working here because:

  • We’re all about hiring clever people who are good humans too. It means Famly is full of top thinkers and generous teammates waiting to help you shine.

  • We like to give a lot of ownership both in terms of responsibility and freedom to try new things. We’ll get you up and running and collaborate along the way, of course.

  • Flexible hours in a hybrid work environment. We fit work around our lives - not the other way around. If you need to work different hours sometimes or take the day from home we trust you to do just that.


At Copenhagen HQ, you can enjoy:

  • A yummy daily buffet and a well stocked drinks fridge (did someone say snack corner?)

  • Our private rooftop courtyard in the centre of Copenhagen

  • Team and company fun with dinners out, office BBQs, Friday bars, quarterly social events, game nights, and more!

  • 25 days of annual holiday, on top of all those Danish bank-related holidays during the spring (and the other festive holidays, too!)


Interested? Let us know! We're looking to fill the position as soon as possible, so get your application in today by sending us:

  • Your CV

  • A cover letter, in which you tell us about yourself and why you’re the best person for this position. Don’t hold back!


This is what our interview process looks like:

  • Video conversation with Senior People Partner

  • Logical test

  • Interview with the Director of Commercial Excellence

  • Home assignment (case)

  • Final interview with the Director of Commercial Excellence and a senior member of the commercial management team.


We are looking forward to hearing from you!

Famly is committed to creating a more diverse, equal, and inclusive workforce, building teams that represent a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. It is a fundamental policy at Famly not to discriminate on any basis or characteristics and celebrate diversity. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to apply.
