Junior Accountant (Komodo Media Ltd - Kickstarter)
Gradfuel, United Kingdom
Job Description
This is a Kickstarter Scheme position (candidate must be 16-24 and on, or have applied for, Universal Credit).
At Komodo, we never do normal. Why? Easy. Because normal has been done, and we aren't in the business to simply recreate. Instead, we innovate.
By definition, we’re a global creative agency, specialising in influencer and social media marketing; but that sounds a little. corporate, doesn’t it?
What that actually means is that we understand how to connect brands and customers through world-class content, award-winning campaigns and the biggest creators around.
Our team of expert marketeers boast years of industry experience, so combine that with a global network of talent and offices across three continents, and you’ve got the makings of a recipe for success.
There’s plenty more where that came from, too.
