About us
zōonpolitikon is a young, growing consultancy at the intersection of politics, regulation, and business. We support clients in regulated markets such as telecommunications, energy, or defence and help them navigate political complexity with confidence.
Our consulting is clear, creative, and effective. We combine rigorous analysis with strategic communication. Team spirit, enthusiasm, and ownership shape everything we do.
You will experience a work culture based on trust and appreciation. Your ideas matter, you will take on responsibility without the hamster wheel of consulting. We grow together: ambitious, open, transparent, and with the right life balance

- Development and implementation of public affairs strategies and communication campaigns
- Preparation for and support of meetings with political decision makers and stakeholders
- Project management, client liaison, and business development

- Growth: Work closely with management, take on responsibility quickly, and keep developing
- Life balance: Consulting without 80 hour weeks. Together we aim high without your private life suffering
