Why Web Solutions?

Top reasons to join us:

Direct access to decision making

We are not a large corporation. At Web Solutions you will be working in project groups that often include members of management.

Implement your own ideas

Projects are not delivered tailor made from the top down. You will be able to participate in all stages of the process.

External skill development

While much of your skill development should come from on-the-job activities, we will also draft a mutual plan for developing yourself and your skills via external training sources.

Gain valuable knowledge and experience

A great place to learn. We encourage internal training as well as direct support between colleagues, team leaders and other departments.

Casual atmosphere, social events

We all know each other, and turn to each other by name. There is no dress code. We arrange plenty of social events, both fixed annual ones, but also spur of the moment. Some with spouses, some not.

Balance between work and private life

We understand that you have a family and responsibilities associated with them. We have a transparent policy regarding sick days, holidays and overtime.
