The people behind the data

Yellow Elk is an expert company in data and AI. We help organizations make better decisions with their data, from strategy to implementation. What sets us apart is how we work: close, direct and with genuine commitment.

Our origin

Yellow Elk started 2018 with a simple idea: build the best company for consultants. An attractive employer attracts the sharpest consultants, who in turn generate satisfied customers.

That turned out to be true. Since our inception, we have grown by over 50% annually and been named Gazelle company four years in a row. In 2025, we merged with Bizware, a company with extensive experience in BI and data engineering. Together we form a group with a turnover of over SEK 300 million and a common ambition: to become the Nordic region's leading player in data and AI.

But the main thing has not changed. We remain a company driven by curiosity, community and a belief that senior consultants deliver best when given freedom and confidence.

The Elks

Yellow Elk brings together senior architects, data engineers, analysts, project managers and change managers. All under the same roof, with the same values.

Our breadth enables us to take overall responsibility: from data strategy and platform building to analytics, AI and organisational change. Many of our consultants have decades of experience from complex projects in finance, industry, telecoms and the public sector.

We don't believe in being the greatest. We believe in being the best partner for organizations that are serious about their data.

What we stand for

Our values underpin everything we do at Yellow Elk and are built upon three simple cornerstones:

Freedom

Our consultants act professionally and do not need to be guided by details. They decide on their own everyday life, in good agreement with the customer. Yellow Elk takes pride in always recommending solutions that give customers flexibility over time.

Friendship

We build relationships. To each other. To our customers. Even to our colleagues in the industry. We build networks with everyone who shares our values, all to make our employees and customers more satisfied. Our communication is open and honest. Full transparency and mutual trust at every step.

Engagement

We go into our missions with all our hearts. We stay up to date on everything that happens in data-driven development and strive to become strategic advisors to our clients. Our employees are committed to the development of the company and consider it an honor to contribute to the development of both colleagues and customers.

We are building something big

In 2025, we brought in Intera as a co-owner. Together, we aim to become the leading player in data, analytics and AI across the Nordic region. We are also actively looking for companies that want to be part of the journey.

Technology Platforms We Work With

We are not locked to one supplier. We choose technology based on what solves your problem. But we have particularly deep experience with:

Yellow Elk is a Microsoft partner with deep expertise in Azure, Power BI and Fabric. We help organizations build modern data platforms and analytics solutions in the Microsoft ecosystem.

We are Snowflake partners and have built data platforms for some of Sweden's most data-intensive organisations. Snowflake is our go-to for cloud-based data storage and sharing.

We work with Databricks for data engineering, machine learning and lakehouse architectures. From experiments to production in one platform.

Long experience with Informatica for data integration and data quality. Especially in complex environments with many source systems.

Build the best company for consultants — and you'll attract the sharpest consultants, who in turn lead to satisfied clients.

Yellow Elk started in 2018 with a simple idea: build the best company for consultants. An attractive employer attracts the sharpest consultants — who, in turn, generate satisfied clients.

That's still the starting point.

An Elk Hub is its own autonomous company with clear support and few constraints. At the same time, we share a strong culture based on freedom, camaraderie, and commitment. Each hub leader shapes their hub, and each consultant considers their hub their closest colleagues, but works together on projects with Moose from other hubs.

We call them hubs, not offices, for a reason. An office is a place. A hub is a team. It's where you have your daily life, your colleagues you actually know, and your leader you can talk to directly.

We believe in having consultants who work closely with their clients — geographically, technically, or market-specifically. This allows all consultants to work in smaller companies and be close to their specific team and company. At the same time, they have the security and backing of over 200 elks outside their specific hub. We share experiences, training, and projects. We share culture, brand, and network. You can feel both secure and seen in our forest.

Three things define our approach to working life: engagement, freedom, and camaraderie. These aren't just posters in the breakroom — it's how we actually work.

  • Everyone is a co-owner. We believe that those who are invested are also engaged. When you own a part of the company, you care a little extra — about the client, about your colleagues, about how things are going.
  • Percentage-based salary.
    You get a large slice of the pie for what you bring in. This means we don't need salary negotiations — you see what you earn each month, and you control your own income. That's true freedom.
  • Seven weeks of summer vacation.
    If it works for the client, it works for us. We believe that those who truly get to recover also do a better job the rest of the year.
  • We recruit for ten years — not for a project.
    Friendship is a core value, not a buzzword. We hire people we want to work with for a long time. That's why each hub becomes like a family, and the entire Yellow Elk becomes like an extended family.
  • We share what we know.
    Yellow Elk is a company of senior professionals, and with seniority comes the responsibility to share knowledge. We do this in our Elk Sessions — internal sessions where Elks share knowledge between the hubs. We encourage everyone who wants to get certified, and often do so together with our partners like Microsoft, Snowflake, and Databricks. Anyone who wants to grow with us has ample opportunity to do so.

In eight years, we've had less than 2% staff turnover across all hubs. While not a direct measure of happiness, it indicates that people stay, and people only stay if they thrive.

We organize ourselves by geography and expertise.

Examples of expertise hubs include Leadership, Financial Services, and Microsoft — to name a few. All operate within data and AI.
