More about Hopin:
Hopin solves the problem with webinars and virtual events. Webinars are one-sided and passive; participants don’t interact with each—a critical component to learning. Unlike Zoom and other video conferencing tools, Hopin focuses on engagement and interaction between users (people-centric), not on screen-watching (powerpoint-centric).
With Hopin, organizers can build live video events with a Stage (for presentations to hundreds of thousands of people), Sessions (for group breakout discussions of up to ten people), and Networking (for one-on-one meetings).
The offer:
A competitive starting salary for this role with opportunity to revisit constantly as we scale.
We are currently a remote team, so are open to remote applications from all over the world. However, if you’re based in London you can work with some of the team (CEO & Founder, Operations and Development) at the Seedcamp office in the Google for Startups Campus in Shoreditch.
