Account Manager for OKTAGON MMA - you will be in charge of the RTL client

8 years… 8 years of work, effort, sweat, and hard labor. And yes, for some of the OKTAGON team, even blood. But what does it all mean? It means 8 years that brought us closer to our goal – becoming “A-level players” in the market!

We've entered the German market and just recently we broke the world record in attendance at an MMA event, with almost 60.000 tickets sold at the stadium of Eintracht Frankfurt. We’ve secured partnerships with RTL, and many others. Our expansion is massive: over a million fans follow us on social media, and our content is broadcast worldwide. We’re global, and we’re looking for “A-level players” to join us and be part of something big.

As we mentioned above, we’ve partnered with RTL, which brings great challenges and opportunities. To handle this successfully, we’re looking for an Account Manager to become a key part of this partnership and help us move this collaboration forward to the satisfaction of both parties!

What’s waiting for you?

• Long-term collaboration with RTL. You’ll need to understand their processes and needs and be the one to ensure smooth communication between them and our team.
• Sometimes, you’ll need to align the unalignable – always to the satisfaction of both parties.
• You’ll manage event promotions, oversee the quality of outputs, and carry out their evaluations.
• You’ll also participate in our tournaments.
• You’ll ensure that RTL properly presents us while making sure we promote them correctly on our platforms.

Who will you work with?

• Lukáš Martinka – Head of Sales
• Hynek Zbořil – CMO
• Kateřina Opara, Amelie Sophie Kornath and the entire marketing, video production and graphic teams
• And also will be new head of marketing in DE

With these responsibilities, it’s clear we’re looking for someone who:

• Someone who already knows what it means to lead a project or manage cooperation with key partners.
• A communicative person who can handle pressure and balance the interests of the client and us.
• Someone who won’t get rattled when either side calls with a problem requiring quick and effective solutions.
• A solution-oriented mindset is essential, as are organizational skills and an action-driven approach.
• And, of course, we need someone native in German and fluent English (to communicate with the rest of our team outside DE).

Let’s be honest: we’re looking for someone who wants to become part of a product followed by hundreds of thousands of people and understands that this involves many responsibilities, processes, time, and yes – sometimes sleepless nights. We have high standards, don’t pretend to be something we’re not, and value honesty. Things can change day by day, so flexibility is essential. But thanks to this, we’re a great team of “A-level players” building something unique.

That’s why we’ll be very selective when choosing the right person.

What does the hiring process look like?

Our selection process isn’t the shortest or easiest. You’ll meet several people and complete a task. That said, each stage lasts 30-60 minutes. After applying, you’ll hear from our recruiter within four working days, either with a rejection email (with feedback) or a phone call. If we are interested in your profile, you will get an invitation to:

• The first round with HR.
• If successful, you’ll get an assignment.
• A call with Lukas.
• Meet someone else from the team.
• Last call with Petr.
• If you pass all these stages, you’ll get an offer. :)

Sounds good right? And we also have super benefits:

• Flexibility to work remotely
• Urban Sports Club Card – €30 contribution
• English language courses
• 30 days of vacation
• Two days off after tournaments
• Free online therapy through our partnership with Hedepy
• An annual budget for tournament tickets
• Free PPV and Oktagon. tv access
• Company merchandise after your probation period
• A full-time role with international projects

Show us what you’ve done – LinkedIn, work samples, anything that demonstrates your experience and send your CV (please everything in English). We’re looking forward to meeting you!
