Working for Sovendus
We are Sovendus
Each employee defines what we are and what we stand for. We are interested in you as a person. So if you have the right skills, we don't care how old you are, where you come from, what gender you are, who you love and who or what you believe in. The important thing is that you find your dream job with us! Get to know us and find our more about us.









Who we are
One team. 17 nationalities. 50/50 women and men. 100 possibilities!
Our story began in Germany in 2008: Oliver Stoll founded the company "Gutschein-Connection". This was the start of a successful growth spurt that made us the leading network for vouchers and special offers. The company was renamed Sovendus in 2011. Today here at Sovendus we have 130 employees without whom this tremendous growth would not have been possible. This also has to do with the great diversity: Our teams are around half male and half female, with 17 nationalities in total and an average age of only 35. These include regular employees, working students and interns.
Our positive corporate culture is characterised by a flat hierarchy, an appreciation for the individual and plenty of room to share your own ideas and to bring them to fruition together with us. As our story is far from over, today we are looking for you!

I appreciate the family environment here: I am accepted and appreciated just as I am. We colleagues always stick together and in the end we only want one thing: to succeed by enjoying our work.

I appreciate the opportunity to work independently and on my own responsibility. Mistakes are allowed and desired. However, it is important to learn from mistakes made and to develop oneself through them.

At Sovendus, all employees have the opportunity to take the initiative in a wide range of projects, to develop themselves and to advance Sovendus in interdisciplinary teams.

During the tulip crisis at the beginning of Corona, our management surprised all colleagues with a bouquet of beautiful tulips in the mobile office. This is just one of many examples of why I am always happy to work at Sovendus.

I take on responsibility without prompting.
I treat my colleagues with respect.

Karlsruhe-Our city
Karlsruhe - The tech region.
If you are not from Karlsruhe, a very happening city awaits you! Karlsruhe is regarded as a technology region par excellence. Not only because the first email in Germany was received here in 1984. With its excellent reputation, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) attracts upcoming talent and experts in fields such as algorithms, software engineering, cloud computing, and scientific computing for the city. Obviously the exchange of technical information is not neglected. Innovative MeetUps and exciting lectures take place regularly in Karlsruhe and the surrounding area.
Karlsruhe - the centre for culture
Well done: Where is the world's largest ‘culture factory’ - in Karlsruhe! The ZKM (Center for Art and Media) is always worth a visit. Or two or three. At the Karlsruhe Long Night of the Museums, there is also loads to discover. For example the staatliche Kunsthalle, one of the oldest and most important museums in Germany.

Karlsruhe - the city of mobility
Karl Drais, the inventor of the bicycle, was a Karlsruhe man. This fits in with the award for the most bicycle-friendly city in Germany, presented in April 2019 in the category Cities with up to 500,000 inhabitants*. If it should rain and you have to leave your bike, all corners of the city can easily be reached by tram. The public transport system is perfectly developed to help you get around.
Karlsruhe - a natural paradise
Green spaces wherever the eye looks. Especially in the area around beautiful Karlsruhe Castle. Also being very close to the legendary Black Forest. Karlsruhe's nature is truly impressive. Strasbourg, The Vosges and The Palatinate Forest are a mere stone's throw away.
