We’re currently opening our Portugal location, so this role will initially be hired through a freelancer contract with our US company. Freelance? Yes. But not the part-time or projectionless kind. (No thanks.) We see this as a long-term investment in your development and wellbeing as a Loka teammate. Over 80% of our freelance team has been with us since we started in Portugal–over a year ago. Every teammate whom we hire can expect ongoing opportunities to learn and grow with Loka.
