Website TicketSwap
TicketSwap is on a journey to become the world’s favourite platform for fans to buy and sell tickets. The pandemic hit the live entertainment sector hard and we can’t wait for events to start happening again. In the meantime, we haven’t sat still. We have continued working on our strategy and making big improvements behind the scenes so that we come out of this chapter stronger than ever.
As markets around the world start to open up, and with vaccines rolling out across Europe, we are looking forward to a strong second half of 2021, swapping tickets, entering new markets and rolling out new product offerings.
To continue on our mission, we’re looking for someone to join the Partnerships team to help us in forging long-term relationships with ticketing companies, event organisers and venues in the UK to support our expansion throughout Europe and beyond.
