Companies that use Wrike

Source: Analysis of 100 job postings that mention Wrike

My analysis shows Wrike buyers are primarily directors and senior managers in project management (13%), marketing (13%), and creative services (8%). These leaders are hiring for operational excellence roles, prioritizing team coordination, workflow optimization, and cross-functional collaboration. They need visibility into project timelines, resource allocation, and campaign deliverables across increasingly complex, multi-channel initiatives.

The day-to-day users span project managers, marketing coordinators, creative teams, and program managers across individual contributor roles (50% of postings). These practitioners use Wrike to manage campaign calendars, track creative asset production, coordinate vendor relationships, and maintain project documentation. I noticed frequent mentions of managing intake processes, routing approvals through stakeholders, monitoring project health dashboards, and ensuring deliverables meet deadlines across geographically distributed teams.

The pain points reveal organizations struggling with scale and standardization. Companies seek to "optimize one common workflow tool for all functions and stakeholders with robust report generation," "establish consistency across accounts," and "drive operational excellence through disciplined project delivery." Another posting emphasizes the need to "track, simplify and optimize the project flow" while identifying "bottlenecks" and improving "workflow to remove delays." These phrases signal teams overwhelmed by manual processes, lacking centralized visibility, and needing systematic approaches to manage growing project volumes efficiently.

I noticed that Wrike users span an incredibly diverse range of industries, but they share a common thread: operational complexity. These aren't simple businesses. I see healthcare systems managing multiple hospital locations, manufacturing companies coordinating production across facilities, law firms handling intricate intellectual property cases, financial services firms processing insurance claims, and retail operations running hundreds of stores. What unites them is that they're building or managing systems that require coordination across many moving parts, whether that's construction materials distribution, medical device manufacturing, food service franchising, or multi-brand corporate structures.

These are predominantly mature, established organizations. The employee counts tell the story: most have 200 to 5,000 employees, with many in the 500 to 2,000 range. I see companies founded decades ago, not last year. Many describe multi-location operations, international presence, or being "leading providers" in their sectors. The funding data shows mostly private equity or no recent funding rounds, suggesting stable, revenue-generating businesses rather than venture-backed startups chasing growth.

I noticed that Wrike users have a distinctive pattern in their tech stacks that points to companies with complex, collaborative workflows spanning multiple teams. The combination of visual collaboration tools like Lucidchart, Miro, and Figma alongside project management alternatives like Smartsheet tells me these are organizations that need to coordinate cross-functional work, particularly between creative, technical, and business teams.

The pairing of Wrike with Docusign appearing 94 times more often than average is especially revealing. These companies are managing projects that require formal approvals, contracts, and sign-offs. When you add Docker Business to the mix, appearing 265 times more frequently, it suggests technology companies or digital-first businesses where development teams need to track work alongside other departments. The Figma and Miro correlation reinforces this, pointing to design-heavy workflows where creative teams collaborate closely with project managers and developers.

My analysis shows these companies operate with a sales-led or services-led model. The Docusign correlation is the key indicator here. They're likely managing client projects, proposals, and deliverables that require documentation and formal agreements. The presence of multiple collaboration and visualization tools suggests they're selling complex solutions that require internal coordination across sales, creative, technical, and delivery teams. These are probably mid-market to enterprise companies, past the startup phase, with established processes but still growing fast enough to need scalable project management.
