Hi, this is us!

Lifesum is a leading consumer health tech company that aims to simplify healthy living, helping currently over 60M users around the world improve their lives through healthier and creating sustainable habits. We are building a platform where we motivate and inspire our users to eat better with the help of delightful software.

By working at Lifesum you get the chance to do something good and have a positive impact on millions, helping our users on their individual routes to look and feel better every day.

 

We want you to share our excitement about the future

The global wellness market is currently valued at $1.5 trillion, and a third of consumers are expected to increase their usage of nutrition apps, diet programs, and subscription food services this year. Why? Because as humans, more and more of us realize that we need to take responsibility for our health and wellness – and that digital is the solution for the individual and society as a whole.

Expanding our team with the right competencies and ambitious people will help us increase what value we provide to people on a global scale. We are now looking for an Director of Performance Marketing - Influencer Marketing & Events.

Influencer Marketing has been a key performance marketing channel at Lifesum in the last 5 years as we have methodically invested in ROI-driven strategies to create value. Your help will make us even better, as we continue to invest more.

We believe that you are a senior influencer marketing executive, with the ability to lead both strategy and execution of the whole Influencer Department. You are at the seniority where you have developed mastery in using data to select and evaluate influencers and at the same time think of the softer emotional sides of brand building. You will be responsible for generating large volumes of sales directly linked and traceable to our Influencer Marketing efforts.

As our new Director of Influencer Marketing & Events, you will lead the team of our extremely talented Influencer Marketing professionals, based in Stockholm and in Los Angeles, and also work in our Marketing Leadership Team (MLT), reporting to Lifesum’s CMO.
