No matter where you are on your path into the future, we hope that our paths could join. We are passionate about bringing our clients into the future, but pragmatic when it comes to methodologies. How we deliver is as important as what we deliver. We are doers who think. 

Are you also passionate about making a difference, pragmatic when needs to be and just overall a great human being? Then we would love to hear from you. 

Career Opportunities

At Valcon, consultants work at the intersection of consultancy, data, and technology. Future employees may contribute to projects such as optimizing supply chains for retailers, building data-driven dashboards for financial institutions, or implementing AI solutions to improve customer processes. In previous projects, teams supported organizations with digital transformations, process automation, and translating complex data into clear management insights.

Valcon’s ambition for the coming years is to help organizations across Europe achieve sustainable growth through digital innovation. Science students play a key role in this: their analytical skills are essential for data analysis, modeling, AI applications, and solving complex business challenges.

Valcon mainly looks for candidates with a quantitative background, such as econometrics, mathematics, data science, computer science, engineering, or (technical) business administration. An affinity with business and communication is a plus. We are looking for starters and experienced professionals.

Workshop

The Sneaker Faqtory is a fast-growing, innovative sneaker manufacturer with a strong sustainable mission: 0% waste in the production process and a tree planted for every pair of sneakers sold. The brand is rapidly gaining ground in the market, but behind the scenes, management is struggling with an important question: where is the real success being achieved? Which products are the most popular? Which stores perform best? And which salespeople make the difference? Without clear data insights, growth remains partly based on gut feeling. That is why the board is calling on you. In this practical case, you will step into the role of a data analyst. You will learn the basics of SQL to retrieve relevant information from databases and discover how to convert raw data into valuable insights. Next, you will analyze and visualize the results so the board can make well-founded strategic choices. The goal? Learning how to make an impact with data in a real business context. Bring your laptop with a working internet connection and prepare for a hands-on session where you bring data to life.
