Account Executive APAC (M/F) – Permanent contract

What if companies had truly informed, engaged, and influential employees?

This is the challenge that Sociabble decided to take up in 2014, by launching an SAAS platform for Internal Communication, Employee Advocacy, and Employee Engagement.

10 years later, Sociabble is used in more than 180 countries, by companies such as Coca-Cola, Mars, Accor, EDF, Tata, Capgemini, Generali.

International since day 1, the company has offices in Paris, Lyon, Boston and Mumbai.

Sociabble was founded by two pioneers of the Internet, Jean-Louis Bénard and Laurent Gauthier, entrepreneurs and investors for more than 25 years, who in building the company, were inspired by the best of U.S.-based SAAS platforms, without being constrained by the caricatures or culture of Silicon Valley start-ups. Sociabble is identified by U.S. analysts as one of the best solutions on the market today.
 
Simplicity, kindness, respect, exemplarity, fairness, and trust are the values around which the company has developed. The teams consist of a mix of experienced and junior professionals, to facilitate day-to-day learning through mentoring.
