Background

About Agust Bjarkarson

I’m a globally-minded professional with over a decade of experience across entrepreneurship, social care, customer service, and international logistics. From co-owning a successful Icelandic brand to supporting Booking.com partners across cultures and languages, I’ve built a reputation for being adaptable, solutions-focused, and driven by both quality and purpose. My professional journey has taken me from running operations and protecting IP rights for a global brand, to working directly with vulnerable individuals in social care, to learning the back-end of e-commerce from warehouse to doorstep. I thrive in remote, cross-functional teams and enjoy bringing structure, empathy, and clarity to every challenge. Core strengths: • Remote Readiness – Self-motivated, organized, and focused in virtual environments • Communication – Fluent in Icelandic and English, confident across cultures and time zones • Leadership & Ownership – 10+ years as co-founder and manager with hands-on experience • Tech-Savvy & Curious – Quick to learn platforms, tools, and adapt to new systems • Customer & Partner Focus – Known for strong rapport-building and attention to detail • Versatility – Equally comfortable in strategy, support, logistics, and care environments I’m passionate about meaningful, human-centered work — and always looking for new challenges where I can apply my skills and learn something new, no matter where I’m based.
