This is not a traditional young & no-budget job post

In fact, you might have come across so many amazing, outstanding, dynamic start-ups and companies that want to change the world. But have you ever wondered at the end of your reading, what makes them so unique and different?

Let me first enlighten you on who we are and what we do at Working in Brussels

We understand that the modern worker generation has different needs, new expectations and a new vision of their work life. The perfect job isn't about a title, a company name or a gross salary package anymore...

Societal evolution is a fact and companies must adapt, give more meaning, work/life balance, the opportunity to develop, learn, grow at your own rhythm and the rhythm of the company, but also a salary package that is more aligned with the reality and trends of our society.

This is the raison d'être of Working in Brussels!

And this is why we created a model that includes the co-living accommodation in the salary package of the people that we employ and that work to our clients. Just like a company car, but here it is a cool accommodation and a real life experience that we offer! Bye to the rent and charges, hello to sunset gin tonics and a happy savings account that grows every month!

You got it? We are the unique “Job + Co-living” Belgian player!

And what about our client? Who are they? What they do? Well, let me tell you their story...
