Who We Are

WHO WE ARE

1 Team. 18 Nationalities. 50% Women & 50% Men. Hundreds of Opportunities!

Our story began in 2008 in Germany: Oliver Stoll founded the company "Gutschein-Connection". This marked the start of successful growth that has made us the leading network for vouchers and special offers. In 2011, the company was renamed Sovendus, and today, Sovendus has 145 employees who have made this tremendous growth possible. This is also due to our great diversity: our teams consist of roughly equal numbers of women and men, with a total of 18 nationalities and an average age of 35. This includes not only permanent employees but also working students and interns.

Ready to shape the future of Sovendus?

We look forward to your application!
