We are cocoroco! We believe the war on talent is a matter of a local market mismatch.

By doing so, global talent can connect with international companies, work from home and get fair compensation. It is therefore our mission to make work accessible for everyone globally, regardless of their location or background. Talents will now access the global labor market and maximize their career growth by unlocking their full potential.
Founded in early 2021, cocoroco is growing at a fast pace and has built a proven online marketplace to support our business model. Speed and quality are the core drivers of our success which are accelerated by automation, and our model is trusted by companies such as Bunq, Rituals, Picnic, and many more.
