About LifeX:
We take away the stress and uncertainty of moving somewhere new, and build communities that connect people from every corner of the world. To do this we offer
Fully serviced co-living apartments, furnished with contemporary Scandinavian design.
Social events and connections across an inclusive community of expats from every corner of the world.
In 3 short years, we have grown to over 70 apartments in the center of Copenhagen, Berlin, London, Munich, Paris and Vienna with more than 350 active members living across our homes. With early investment from Founders, Cherry.vc and stellar angel investors, we are planning to scale rapidly to take over Europe and beyond.
This is a unique position to get insight into what it takes to scale a fast growing international start-up, and work with people who are passionate about making a difference and challenging the status quo.
