Sales & Account Manager (m/f/x) - B2B Marketing & Media

Our mission is to transform advertising into an interactive experience.
Interactive Paper seamlessly merges the analog and digital realms, presenting the advertiser's message in a captivating and playful manner. Instead of passive reception, consumers engage interactively by placing their phones on the paper, activating touch points to access engaging content directly on their devices.

We're not looking for a "salesperson."

We're looking for a doer, someone who gets out there, takes action, closes deals, and builds and leads customer relationships from first outreach to finished campaign.

At Interactive Paper, we connect physical communication with digital interaction. And you are the engine that wins new brands, agencies, and decision-makers. We work with 900+ brands like Google, BMW, Pfizer, Oracle, EY, Samsung and more.

If you love throwing yourself into a young, ambitious team, taking responsibility, building your own client base, and delivering real revenue impact, this is your playground.
