About HeyVar
We think the people behind hospitality deserve better.
We’re a small team from hospitality and technology, on a mission to make the employee journey feel like a luxury guest journey. We were sick of waiting for someone else to make it, so we’re building it with the people leading hospitality at the heart of it.

Story
Where the name comes from
The name is a question and a welcome at the same time. HeyVar.
Var comes from vardøger, a Norse concept with no clean English equivalent. It describes the unmistakable sense of someone’s presence before they arrive. It is the phantom sound of footsteps in the hallway before the door opens; the silhouette seen in the mind’s eye before the guest rounds the corner. The sound of your partner’s keys jiggling before they step foot in the yard. It is Scandinavian intuition at its most precise.
A little more than a logo
A key to what’s next.
Our logo brings the HeyVar story into one small mark. A key for opportunity, a compass for direction, and a star for the place you’re heading.
- •The key represents the opportunity to open the right door.
- •The compass represents finding your direction.
- •The star represents the destination you’re moving toward.
- •The quatrefoil brings something human, a little luck, and a nod to European hospitality.
Why HeyVar exists
What if we approached careers the way the best hospitality brands approach guests?
We believe every candidate deserves the same thought, and every manager deserves the tools to easily create it.
