Swan

Since 2019, Swan has operated with an ambitious, kind-hearted culture, and a strong product vision. We move fast, like every startup, but our ultimate priority is to make sure our platform is secure and robust. This is necessary since we work in a highly regulated industry: banking.

We were founded in 2019 with startup studio eFounders, surrounded by the buzzy energy of other budding seed projects. Our founders are all fintech veterans, and our CEO Nicolas Benady is a serial entrepreneur, having already co-founded two successful payment startups - Limonetik and Antelop.

Swan helps over 100 European companies embed banking features into their products, and hundreds more are on the way. We’re a team of over 200, between Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Paris, and more. If you zoom out, our work simply comes down to helping companies store and move money. And this is transforming the very nature of banking, putting its power into the hands of all kinds of tech companies, all across Europe. This is a cultural shift, and we are leading it in Europe. We believe Swan can become a generational company. Our focus is now on building up that long-term vision!

Our team must grow to reflect the diverse pool of EU tech companies we serve.

A growing team obliges a more sophisticated structure and a People department that’s truly caring. By now, Swan’s culture is well engrained and we’ve got our rituals down! We all come together for our Monday kick-off and Friday all-hands (whether remote or in person). Some online games have achieved cult status at Swan 👾; we play them during coffee breaks. There are running buddies, yoga buddies, and enough musicians to create a band (most of the time we keep our headphones on and share favourites on Slack, but we do have some original singles). Twice a year we go somewhere gorgeous (a chateau, a mountain) where we reconnect, deep-dive into big topics, and relax. We’re fast learning, internationalizing, and excited to see what’s next! 🙌

Swan is committed to providing a caring work environment for all employees, regardless of age, sex, disability, sexual orientation, race, religion, or belief.

When it comes to recruitment, we're interested in your work experience, skills, and overall personality. Because diversity makes the workplace stronger and is necessary for Swan's success, we are intensifying efforts to incorporate concrete actions to help us improve in this area. We are actively seeking partners who can help us to always strive to be a more supportive and welcoming company for all.

Swan is proud to have launched a partnership with 50intech to boost our diversity and inclusion efforts.
