At Viaplay Group, we entertain millions of people every day through our streaming services, radio networks, TV channels and production studios. We believe in the power of content not just as a way of telling stories and touching lives, but also expanding worlds.

We may have started in the Nordics, but we have a global mindset. This means we’re constantly launching our Viaplay streaming service in new markets and are on the lookout for talented, curious, driven professionals to join us on our journey.

Right now, we’re searching for a creative and engaging Social Media Editor in our London office – are you ready to hit play on an exciting career change?
