About Telness Tech and the holding company
Telness Tech is part of the Nordic Communications Group (NCG), which is the holding company of the highest rated MVNO in Sweden, Telness.
The company was founded in 2016 by former Telenor executive Martina Klingvall with the ambition to change the standards within the telecom industry. Since the MVNO was founded the company’s tech stack has been built with the ambition to ultimately white label its services and sell it on a SaaS model. This has resulted in a flexible and modular telco platform that can be deployed and run on any of the major cloud solutions as well as incumbent IT systems. In 2021 Telness Technologies AB was spun off from Telness with the mission to make telecom a joyful experience for everyone by increasing customer happiness and reducing operational expenditures (OPEX) through automation.
Since the launch of Telness Tech the company (NCG) has closed an 8.5m Euro Series A round, been listed on the Digital Top 50, acquired several customers on its Automated Digital Telco (ADT) platform and started its internationalization journey to become the leaders in #teltech globally.
Today, the company group consists of roughly 40 people and growing. It’s a versatile team with various interests and personalities, but we share the common traits of curiosity and authenticity. We value transparency and work actively with equality as well as customer and employee happiness. We believe that a passionate and diversified team is the foundation for success and to create the conditions for you to grow together with us!
We look forward to receiving your application!
