Social Media & Marketing Manager

Salary Competitive

Wanna be a part of making the world a friendlier place? We’re Speedfriending, a small startup that’s part event company, part tech company. We enable people to find new, meaningful friendships. We do this primarily through our Speedfriending events, of which we’ve now held close to 200. We’re also building the new match-making app for friendships, and you can find our app in the App Store and Google Play.


Right now, we are looking for someone who can help us on a part-time basis with our social media presence and the marketing of the event side of our business. And in the not too distant future - once we have the funding in place to go full throttle with the commercialization of our app - maybe you’re even someone who might want to step up as the CMO for an emerging social tech platform?


In this role you will:

  • Be the main responsible for posting in our social media channels

  • Create marketing content for these channels and our web page

  • Set up a marketing plan, with a schedule for the specific posts

  • Manage messages/communication on our platforms

  • Contribute to building the Speedfriending brand

  • Be a sparring partner for the rest of the team on all kinds of other topics and decisions


If we expand our scope, we’ll soon need someone who can:

  • Be in charge of the overall marketing efforts of Speedfriending

  • Be in charge of recruitment of future marketing hires

  • Help with market segmentation and go-to-market strategies

  • Help commercialize and grow Speedfriending as a digital social platform

  • Connect and build strategic relationships with relevant influencers and partners


We think you:

  • Are fluent in Norwegian

  • Have a job or are currently studying, and you’re looking for a part-time engagement to supplement this, with potential for a bigger involvement in the future

  • Are based in, or close to, Oslo

  • Are a genuine and caring person who shares our motivation to solve loneliness and enable friendship and community

  • Are creative, and think marketing should be fun and profound, not generic and superficial

  • Have experience in content production and social media marketing

  • Are self-driven and can appreciate the somewhat chaotic nature of a small startup

  • Are interested in building a wholesome company culture


As a part of our team, you'll get:

  • The hustle of an early-stage startup, with the possibility of high growth and global impact

  • A challenging experience with a steep learning curve

  • An opportunity to help solve one of society's biggest challenges

  • Flexible working hours that can easily be combined with studies or other jobs

  • Salary to be negotiated based on the scope of the engagement

We have recently launched our Speedfriending app, while organizing events all over Norway, Denmark and Australia. We are looking for someone who loves challenges, has a can-do-attitude, and who recognize the great impact this can have in eliminating loneliness and friendzoning the world. You will become a very important part of our team and future! (More information about us: https://linktr.ee/speedfriending_com) This is speeddating's friendly, fun and inclusive twin sister. After organizing well over 80 physical Speedfriending-events in Norway and Denmark - creating thousands of conversations and friendships - Covid 19 interrupted us. During this time have started digitizing the concept, with an Tinder-for-friends app and a video communication platform. Hope you want to join us.
