Business Development Manager - London, UK

About FIXR

Here at FIXR we’re on a mission to be the number one Event Intelligence and ticketing platform globally. Ticket sales and event management can typically be a clunky, manual process, but our platform makes it easier than ever for event organisers to create seamless, user-friendly experiences for their customers. Not only that, we provide our organisers with data intelligence and insight that help profile their ticket buyers  in order to retain and grow their audience over time.

We kickstarted our journey in 2015, and since then we’ve helped millions of people enjoy events all over the UK; whatever size or type of event, we provide a comprehensive end-to-end solution for event organisers. While we’ve been a leading ticketing platform in the student events industry since our inception, we’ve seen explosive growth across wider industry areas, and we are now building on this accelerated momentum to expand into new verticals and markets.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our close knit team as we experience record sales and lead the charge in providing enterprise grade data intelligence to an underserved events market.
