Job description

We believe great companies are built by people who are driven to solve difficult problems.

At Nextory, we're building the future of reading and listening. It's an ambitious goal that demands exceptional execution, relentless curiosity, and a willingness to challenge convention. We set a high bar for ourselves because we believe that's what it takes to create products people love.

If you're motivated by impact, energized by ambitious teammates, and excited by the opportunity to build something category-defining, you'll feel at home here.

Let us tell you about the role

This is an Account Manager role that combines opening new doors with creating relationships that last. You'll be part of our Commercial Business Development team, where you'll find and sign new valuable partners, while also developing the collaborations we already have across the Nordics. All with one main goal: bringing new listeners and readers to Nextory.

Your main responsibilities will include:

• Identifying high-value prospects, reaching out and booking meetings
• Negotiating and signing new partner agreements
• Planning and launching the first campaign together with new partners
• Continuously booking marketing activities with existing partners to drive conversions
• Following up on results and finding new ways to improve each collaboration
• Working closely with colleagues in Marketing, Product and Analytics to bring campaigns to life

Your story so far

We believe you're a relationship builder with a hunter's instinct. You get energy from meeting new people and turning a good conversation into a signed deal, and you're just as motivated by what comes after: making the collaboration & results grow. Most of all, you're curious. You like trying new things, taking initiative, and experimenting, even when not everything works out, because around here, that's how we learn.

Furthermore, we believe you have:

• A degree in business administration, marketing, economics or similar
• 2-4 years of experience in partnerships, business development, account management or B2B sales
• A proven track record of finding new business and closing deals
• Experience running campaigns & creating marketing materials together with partners or other external stakeholders
• Fluency in Swedish and English, written and spoken

We'd be especially happy to see:

• That you speak French
• Experience from digital subscription services, streaming, media or consumer tech
• A network in the Nordic market, for example within telecom, banking and loyalty programs, employee benefits or travel
• That you're comfortable working with data and analysis
• That you already use AI tools in your everyday work, for example for prospecting, research or outreach

You don't need to tick every box. If you love closing deals and have great instincts when it comes to growing partnerships, we want to talk to you.

The Nextory way of working

At Nextory, we believe a strong and inclusive culture is key to our success and that culture flourishes when we meet and collaborate in person as much as possible. That's why we spend the majority of the working time at our beautiful office!

We are based in Stockholm, Sweden, with offices in Paris and Bangalore. Our hybrid work policy includes four days in the office and Wednesdays as a work-from-home day.

Your next story starts here

We look forward to your application! Applications are reviewed continuously.

Please note that we do not offer relocation and that a six-month probationary period applies.
