About Meltwater

Founded in Oslo in 2001 before moving our headquarters to San Francisco in 2006, Meltwater is the global leader in media intelligence, with over 2,000 employees globally and 30,000 corporate clients. Our innovative products help businesses extract insights from billions of online conversations and articles – we call it Outside Insight.

Meltwater is the global leader in media intelligence. We help our clients better understand the World around them by providing insights on how themselves, their competitors and their industry is being talked about in the news and on social media. Originally founded in Norway in 2001, we are now headquartered out of San Francisco, with 2,000 employees across 57 offices globally. We work with over 30,000 clients, ranging from the likes of Amazon and the Golden State Warriors to small non-profits and PR firms, and are still privately held and fully owned by our employees.

We understand the difference between perks and culture and are proud to offer both. The fridge is always stocked, we like to celebrate our successes, and you might see the occasional dog walking around the office, but we are more than just stand-up desks and a ping pong table. Our culture is rooted in a fundamental belief in people and the potential they possess. We believe that people thrive when they are in a nurturing environment and are constantly learning new skills and developing in their careers. This is what we strive to provide our employees in all of our offices – from San Francisco to Sydney. Our employees embody the ‘work hard, play hard’ spirit. We think we have some of the best and most talented people out there, and we are lucky to have them.

We have been fortunate enough to win many awards around the World highlighting Meltwater as a Great Place to Work, and we are also proud to completely own and operate the Meltwater Entrepreneurial School of Technology (MEST) in Accra, Ghana, helping educate the next generation of aspiring African technology entrepreneurs.
