Muzicvue – Career Opportunity
BUSINESS Development Representative
Muzicvue is a revolutionary, live-streaming entertainment platform that connects global audiences with both live and pre-recorded on-stage performances by professional artists with an established following. The company embraces the disruption of the traditional music marketplace and believes the energy, experience and vivid imagery of on-stage performances should be accessible by users whenever they choose and in the comfort of their own home, rather than at a scheduled time and venue.

Muzicvue will provide individualized attention to customers to assist them in utilizing live-streaming technology in order to reach a broader audience and to reconnect with their fan base.
