1. Online Marketing Manager
For Immediate Hire
Recently named one of the top 50 Chicago companies to work for (having a ping pong conference room table may have helped sway
the judges), YouSwoop provides unbeatable local deals to the best things to do, eat and see around town. Since its launch in 2009,
YouSwoop has sold more than 350,000 "Swoops" to the best experiences around town — from kayaking and skydiving to Cubs rooftop
tickets, yacht parties and trolley crawls.
At YouSwoop, we scout out the best things to do around town, negotiate special rates for our beloved Swoopers (our members) and
broadcast the offer to over 200,000 Chicagoans. To date we have saved Chicagoans nearly $25 million. Our Swoopees (YouSwoop
employees) and Swoopterns (YouSwoop Interns) are the driving force behind our company's success. We've created a culture where
everyone's input matters and where each person — whether you're a veteran or a brand new intern — is integral to our daily success.
We love what we do and we're always on the lookout for great new additions to our thriving team!
