SENIOR SALES & PARTNERSHIP MANAGER till SOCIETY ICON

What we believe, who we are and what we do
Based on social media and access to tools, individuals are starting to express themselves, raising their voice and speaking their creative mind in their own universe - We believe they are the future of the media industry!
Society icon is a mobile application and tech platform where individuals (icons) and brands meet to collaborate and grow together. We’ve connected more than 60.000 people with their favorite brands by creating a service that people use to express their creativity, together with the brands they love – and a technical platform for brands to both grow sales, awareness, and consumer loyalty.
Our goal is to help clients be more cost and time-efficient in their marketing and advertising spend in our platform, and through our technology, creating value both when it comes to revenue, sales, reach, and engagement but also strengthening the bond between the brands and their own consumers, fans, readers or followers.
Our work spans across multiple verticals, such as fashion, entertainment, retail, and music, and you will build deeper relationships with existing clients and open doors to new partners and opportunities in an ever-changing and growing market.
