We’re B-Reel — an independent creative agency that operates at the intersection of storytelling, technology and culture. Born in Sweden and with 4 nimble offices in Europe and the US, we’ve organized ourselves around change and forward motion since 1999. We try to live, hire, work and play according to one simple belief: The most interested people make the most interesting things.

In Barcelona, interesting means not being a conventional agency, mixing brand and product innovation, being thinkers and doers simultaneously and far away from the Spanish modus operandi of both clients and agencies. We work in a modern international environment for global clients who dream big, a perfect blend of high-tech companies - like Google or Twitch - and luxury brands - such as Moncler and the LVMH Group.

Our desired candidates possess an outstanding eye for detail and execution while being an excellent team player, and eager to learn and mentor others. They should be able to translate complex designs to code and have the passion to deliver great user experiences, while always trying to improve the development process using technology that best suits the project.

We are looking for you who are a proactive and collaborative problem solver who can propose creative technical solutions and has strong opinions about tech, frameworks, and new technologies.
