Your opportunity: You are the first person on the ground as Account Manager #1 at Horizon, tag-teaming with our Co-Founder & CEO and working with global client companies such as BSH, Merz, Hansgrohe and more. With this position comes the opportunity to lead and build up our account management department and create a team around you in future.

About us
Missing consumer needs accounts for an estimated trillion dollar per year burn, being the #1 reason for consumer product failure. We want to change that with our B2B SaaS and enable product, innovation and consumer insights teams to consumer-validate product decisions with purchase intent insights.
 
Our clients are leading global organizations across various consumer segments. By conducting behavioural research with Horizon, clients decrease uncertainty for their product decisions by uncovering purchase intent for different product decisions and figuring out the best approaches for positioning, price range, and brand fit to nail their Go-to-Market.
 
We believe that different minds and cultures can achieve great things. This is why we are remote-first while we are working on building different hubs in locations where our existing team members already are, so you can still meet up with your mates for work while enjoying the flexibility of remote working.


Interested? We got you! Dive deeper into our vision, mission and core values that we worked out together here.
