💡 Background
In order to strengthen our corporate vision of "Working Connections", people from a wide range of backgrounds should come together at Patch.Work. The aim is to form lively and permanently effective organisations from their ideas or already started projects and to share them in the community. To foster these synergies, we will create active platforms. One of these will be the Patch.Work App. Yo will work together with a senior full-stack engineer and a UX/UI designer to deliver a product that exceeds our needs to help creating a new Community in the Chiemgau. You have the chance to be here from the very beginning until the opening of the space. Be part of it when we redesign the Chiemgau 🚀 www.patch-work.co
🦾Who We Are
Due to the New Work idea and the change in the labour market, Patch.Work was brought to life by Stefan Daxenberger, a workspace in the rural area and with it the desire to build a lively community in the heart of the Chiemgau. Our mission is to create awareness for a sustainable working world in Chiemgau. We are building a platform that supports growth, shared experiences and real success. We offer our members flexible access to beautiful, sustainable spaces, a culture of inclusivity and the energy of an inspired community, all connected through our extensive technology infrastructure. We believe Patch.Work has the power to improve the way people work, live and grow. The construction of the building, which is designed for sustainability, has already begun and the focus is on completion and opening of the building in September. The sustainable timber construction will reflect our mission from the inside out.
