Ework Group

What Ework Group does

Ework Group is a publicly listed (Nasdaq Stockholm) total talent solutions provider founded in 2000 and headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden. The company sources, contracts, and manages independent professionals and consultancy firms on behalf of enterprise clients, with stated reach of 200,000+ professionals across 50 countries, 500+ clients, and 11,500+ professionals on assignment. Service offerings span Consulting, Recruitment, Managed Service Provider (MSP), Talent Advisory, and Total Talent Management (TTM, combining MSP and RPO), supported by adjacent services including Protective Security, Compliance, Nearshoring, and Workforce Insights.

Its core technology is the Verama marketplace platform, which connects supply (independent consultants and consultancy firms) with demand (enterprise buyers), backed by an AI-based matching score that ranks candidates against assignment-defined skills. Sub-products (Ework Time for hour tracking, Ework+ for consultant benefits, PayExpress for 3-day payment financing) and AI-themed offerings (Expert Provider AI, Skillshift Lens) extend the platform. Verama supports self-serve onboarding via LinkedIn and Google SSO, while enterprise relationships are driven by a direct field-sales motion plus inside sales and consultancy-firm channel partners.

Revenue is generated primarily through managed-services fees (MSP/TTM), transaction/placement fees on successful consultant matches, and professional-services fees for Talent Advisory. Geographic operations are anchored in the Nordics (Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland) and expanded into Poland, Belgium, Germany, and Slovakia through wholly owned subsidiaries. The most recent strategic emphasis under incoming CEO Daniel Almgren is on digital platform consolidation and AI-enabled service delivery, including the June 2026 launch of the AI Specialist Offering and a multi-year TTM agreement with WirelessCar in 2026.
