Our Story

It all started with six people who are avid podcast listeners. They saw a market that was growing faster then ever with no clear way for content creators to monetize their work. The only option was through direct sponsorships which caused an ever-growing ‘advertising creep’ into the content.

Thus, Acast was born November, 2013 in Stockholm, Sweden. We launched our platform in Sweden in May, 2014, and later that year in the UK. We are now entering the US market and are opening an office in New York.

The Mission

Our goal is simple; We want to change the way the world views on-demand audio. We want to enable content creators to distribute & monetize their work and to connect with their audience. We also want to provide a unique consumption and discovery experience for that audience.

Culture

As an employer we want our employees to feel like they can make an impact in what we do. Your ideas matter. We share both responsibilities and accountability equally in growing as a company and as a brand. Our culture and identity are very important to us and we are looking for people we feel will well fit into our family. We have a highly dynamic work environment that values creativity, independence and work-life balance.

Oh, and we also love Fika
