Job Vacancy: Key Account Manager

EHF Marketing GmbH is looking for a Key Account Manager to join its team based in Vienna – the sooner, the better.

You have good writing skills and can craft everything from emails and invitations to project presentations and summaries, easily adjusting your tone/voice accordingly.

Self-aware, well-spoken on the phone and eloquent in emails, you're a charismatic people person who can talk to anyone on any company level. You are flexible, honest and excited to develop to the partnerships with sponsors.
