What we offer

Values

At Amaranth Advisory, we navigate through complexity — with curiosity, integrity, and ownership.

We believe that excellence emerges from the intersection of trust and accountability — where people think critically, act independently, and collaborate without ego. Our culture values experience as much as fresh perspective: we combine expertise, respect, and a shared drive to create tangible impact for our clients.

Team

We work as one team of strategists, technologists, and entrepreneurs. Everyone brings a different perspective — united by a mindset of learning, empathy, and ambition. You’ll join colleagues with deep expertise in their fields, enabling discussions and solutions at a level of depth only possible in strong, knowledge-driven teams.

Leadership at Amaranth isn’t tied to titles — if you want to take ownership and shape direction, you will.

Development

We believe in continuous growth — through challenging projects, honest feedback, and access to first-class learning opportunities. From day one, you’ll take responsibility and shape your own path. Whether you’re expanding your technical horizon, developing new client topics, or growing as a leader — we’ll support you through mentorship and real opportunities to make your mark.

Benefits

We offer flexible working models and modern ways of working that adapt to the rhythm of our projects — supported by state-of-the-art IT, efficient collaboration tools, and smart mobility options. You’ll have everything you need to deliver excellence, whether working on-site with clients, from our offices, or remotely. Great coffee, plenty of drinks, and healthy snacks are, of course, part of it.
