In The Pocket is a leading European digital product studio. We are a complete delivery organisation that defines, designs & ships digital products, strategies and software. We’re a lively bunch that’s up for any challenge: global cloud-based platforms, large audience apps, medical devices, banking software, augmented reality and much, much more. As long as it lives and breathes digital.

In The Pocket is ambitious and is growing rapidly. That’s why we’re on the lookout for a passionate Business Developer based in Belgium to join our team.
