Front End Developer (s)

In the last few years, we have seen the emergence of several extremely successful specialists across the markets. The demands for increasingly sophisticated and specialised services mean that one size no longer fits all. Schibsted Nordic Marketplaces are set up for a new nordic direction to enable even better marketplaces for our users, to set us up for the next decade and to make an even more positive impact on societies and the planet.

Our marketplaces have unique and strong positions as market leaders, with FINN in Norway, Blocket in Sweden, DBA and Bilbasen in Denmark, and Tori and Oikotie in Finland. Together we make up Nordic Marketplaces in Schibsted, collectively connecting millions of buyers and sellers every month. Whether you want to buy a car, a new home, find a job or want a pair of new shoes, you can turn to us.
