Strong collaboration and growth opportunities make Bankdata stand out

"Bankdata is a completely different company today than it was just five years ago. The outside world has taken notice, and that’s crucial to attracting top-tier talent. This ranking confirms what we experience when we post developer roles. We receive many applications – and they’re strong candidates."

The report also highlights a significant rise in awareness of Bankdata, with three out of four IT professionals now familiar with the company.

A strong reputation starts from within
CEO Esben Kolind Laustrup emphasizes the central role employees play in shaping the company’s image:

"Our image depends entirely on what our employees say about Bankdata, so a big thank-you to everyone who helps tell our story."

Bankdata views this recognition as an important signal to current and future employees: it is possible to combine professional development with work-life balance and strong team culture.
