A Truly Global Career Opportunity
Meltwater News was founded in Norway in 2001 and has since become a leading
international player in the filed of online media intelligence with 55
offices across Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and Australia.
Our company partners with more than 22,000 clients globally, offering a
product portfolio that allows companies to monitor both traditional and
social media, understand important issues in their market, measure consumer
sentiment, and make confident and educated business decisions.
Meltwater is a global Software as a Service (SaaS) company developing
disruptive, no-nonsense software designed to meet the specific needs of
businesses around the world. Our business approach is built around creating
or acquiring innovative Software as a Service (SaaS) technologies and then
leveraging our sales organization and worldwide infrastructure to quickly
bring these solutions to market. Through our ability to identify emerging
markets, outsource innovation and leverage our global infrastructure,
Meltwater has become one of the fastest growing software companies globally,
and the fun is just beginning!
Our Culture
Meltwater is different—from the kind of people we hire to how we develop and
deploy our software solutions. Guided by our core values, Meltwater has a
fundamental belief in people and the potential they possess. We are not
afraid of investing in hidden talent and believe that in an environment
where people are motivated and supported by their colleagues individuals
will discover their strengths.
We are a company built on an entrepreneurial spirit, hard work and the joy
of accomplishment. We value teamwork, as well as individual excellence. At
Meltwater, we put our passion and our personality into everything we do.
What to Expect
With a strong emphasis on sales, you will experience personal and
professional growth at a fast pace. Sales is the most crucial aspect of any
business and is a critical skill to anyone looking to find long term success
in business. At Meltwater News you will begin your career as a Sales
Consultant. Those who show management potential, drive and are able to
exhibit excellence in the Sales Consultant role will have the opportunity to
manage their own team. Success as a Sales Manager then opens the door to a
multitude of opportunities within the company, one of which is to run one of
our international offices as a Managing Director.
What We’re Looking For
Meltwater attracts individuals who are smart, focused, adaptable,
passionate, entrepreneurial, and who are able to thrive in an autonomous
environment. The cornerstone of Meltwater’s rapid international expansion is
both our belief in and willingness to invest into people. We recognize the
obstacles that are set forth by the job market and tend to focus on the
potential of the individual rather than necessarily experience. We
continuously seek out talented people that have the ability to attack the
market and possess the stamina needed to pioneer and grow a successful
organization. With this mindset we are determined to give the right people
the opportunity to flourish within our management program.
A Meltwater News employee is a warm and empathetic person with excellent
people skills and sky-high ambitions. He or she has exceptional
interpersonal, analytical and relationship building skills and has the
ability to communicate with people on all levels. We are an ambitious
company looking for ambitious individuals that refuse to play for anything
but a winning team, so a proven track record of success in academics as well
as extra-curricular activities is a must.
