Co-Founder & CMO & COO

Salary Unpaid
Equity 20%

I am looking for our third and final co-founder at SwayQ.

SwayQ is building a Nordic creator campaign marketplace, helping brands work with relevant creators for UGC and influencer campaigns — without agency overhead, unclear pricing and heavy coordination.

We are not in the idea phase.

We already have our first paying customers, a significant part of the platform is built, we have strong mentor and accelerator support around us, and we are now entering a phase of commercial acceleration.

Today, we are two founders:

  • I drive commercial strategy, sales, GTM, partnerships, fundraising and company-building.

  • Janusch drives product, platform, engineering and technical development.

Now we are looking for the third founder:

Someone who can take ownership of operations, campaign delivery, creator coordination, marketing, brand and operating systems.

In practice, this is a COO/co-founder role — but in an early-stage startup, that does not mean managing from a distance. It means hands on the stove.

You need to be ready to:

  • Run campaigns from brief to delivery

  • Coordinate with brands and creators

  • Build processes, trackers, templates and operating rhythm

  • Help shape marketing, brand, content and case studies

  • Take responsibility without waiting for perfect structure

  • Become a real co-founder, not an advisor

For the right person, we are open to around 20% equity, structured with cliff and vesting, so it is fair and professional for everyone. Salary is not guaranteed from day one, but there may be a path to salary as revenue or funding develops.

This is not for everyone.

It is for someone who wants to join early, take real risk, build something concrete and become co-owner of the operating engine that should make SwayQ the easiest way for Nordic brands to buy creator campaigns.

Reach out directly if this sounds relevant — or tag someone who should see this.

SwayQ

About SwayQ The better company behind creator partnerships. SwayQ helps brands and creators work together through transparent fees, stronger trust, and better matching than the old agency model allows. Born in Copenhagen. Built for the world. SwayQ was built because the old agency model is too opaque, too expensive, and too far removed from the real partnership. Brands often pay more than they should without full clarity on fit, creators give up too much of the value they create, and both sides are asked to trust a process they cannot fully see. We built SwayQ to make the economics, the matching, and the trust clearer. We believe the economics of influence should be visible, the matching should be genuine, and both sides should see the same terms. Category over roster Matching is based on category themes and verified platform signals — not on whichever creators happen to be on an agency roster. AI-assisted matching is coming soon. Trust, not leverage Both sides see the same terms. No information asymmetry, no hidden incentives, no leverage games.
