Company Overview
At Poppulo, we help the world’s leading organizations reach every employee, wherever they work.
For a large, distributed workforce, that’s harder than it sounds. Today’s workforce is spread across offices, factories, retail stores, hospitals and other frontline locations. No single communication channel can reach everyone. Poppulo brings those channels together in one AI-powered employee experience platform, helping companies deliver relevant communications wherever their people are located.
More than 10,000 organizations trust us to connect with their workforce across email, mobile, intranet, Microsoft Teams, and digital signage. Our communications reach more than 50 million employees worldwide, and the platform delivers content to more than 600,000 digital signs around the globe. We also help employees engage with their company, celebrate one another’s contributions, and stay connected wherever they work.
We know there’s no such thing as a “perfect” candidate—we’re all works in progress, picking up new skills as we go. So apply even if you don’t tick every box. We want people who see things differently—because that’s how we see things too.
