Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
We’re committed to growing and empowering a more inclusive community within our company, industry, and cities.

Delivery operations at Wolt
We’re here to make sure every delivery experience is an amazing one for our customers, courier partners, and merchant partners.
In partnership with local and global operations and various tech teams, we tackle questions like: how to onboard tens of thousands of courier partners efficiently, how to secure the right balance of couriers and orders across different cities, and how our logistics algorithms should be set up to ensure every order is a smooth one.
Our culture
At Wolt, you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies.
You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. All of which comes from working with passionate, caring, down-to-earth and super-smart people.
The delivery of (almost) everything
In 2014, we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world.
We’ve always taken an ambitious but sustainable approach to growth. And, as part of the DoorDash team, we can keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.
"The learning curve has been steep. I've been given plenty of opportunities and space to grow. At Wolt, if you find things that should be fixed or improved, no-one is holding you back. 'This is how we've always done it' isn't an argument here. There is no micromanaging whatsoever, yet I feel I always get the support I need from my team lead and peers."
