BRANDBASSADOR - INTEGRATION SPECIALIST (GMT + 0 to GMT + 3)


Brandbassador is a platform that allows brands to scale and automate word-of-mouth ambassador marketing, and allows people to be an ambassador for their favourite brands and get perks, gift cards, cash and products in return.

After running into a number of painful manual tasks, the founders created their own internal system to alleviate the problem.
