International Business Developer

Job description

Bizon is the Amazon agency of Publicis Group, the second-largest communication group in the world.

You know Amazon, right? Of course, the company is at the height of its global conquest and dominates e-commerce on an international scale.
Amazon globally averages over 2.4 billion visits per month.
Today, everything is sold there. From your Christmas gifts to your cleaning products, chances are you'll find anything you need! But the line between everything and anything is thin. Many brands, despite offering quality products, struggle to position themselves effectively.
This is where Bizon comes in, the European leader in Amazon performance. Our goal is to help brands establish themselves on a large scale, thanks to our methodology: accelerated growth driven by data and technology.

Our Story:
Founded in 2017 by Guillaume Rigallaud, Bizon has grown to 80 employees and €20 million in revenue. In 2022, the company was acquired by Publicis with the aim of expanding it within its subsidiaries to make it a global leader.
In less than 24 months, Bizon became the fastest-growing agency within Publicis France and opened its first offices in London and Milan.
Bizon is an ambitious and innovative project, but above all, it's a human and collective adventure, in a stimulating and supportive environment.
Whether they are building strategy or executing campaigns for their clients, our talents test, develop, and challenge the latest technologies, constantly pushing the boundaries to ensure our fields evolve continuously.

About Bizon (Publicis Groupe)

Bizon c’est quoi ?
Vous connaissez Amazon ? C’est un bon début ! Forcément, la firme est à l’apogée de sa conquête du monde et préempte le commerce à l’international. C’est le numéro 1 du e-commerce : rien qu’en France, 1 personne sur 2 se rend au moins une fois par mois sur Amazon.
Aujourd'hui, tout s’y vend. De vos cadeaux de Noël à vos produits d’entretien, il y a fort à parier que vous y trouviez tout ! Mais du tout au n’importe quoi, la frontière est fine. Beaucoup de marques, dont les offres sont pourtant qualitatives, n’arrivent pas à s’y positionner efficacement. C’est là qu’on intervient. Bizon, c’est la première agence spécialisée dans l’accompagnement des marques sur Amazon Europe.

Notre mission : permettre à toute marque, quelle que soit sa taille, qu’elle soit déjà présente sur le segment e-commerce ou non, de vendre ses produits sur Amazon Europe de la manière la plus optimale qui soit.

Notre histoire:
Créée en 2017 par Guillaume Rigallaud, Bizon passe de 0 à 70 salariés et 11 millions € de chiffre d'affaires en moins de 5 ans.
En 2022, la start-up est rachetée par Publicis, numéro 3 mondial de la communication.
Bizon, c’est 70 experts Amazon, au sein d’une équipe Publicis de + de 1000 talents, répartis sur 5 sites en France : Paris, Lille, Lyon, Rennes et Montpellier.
Qu’ils construisent la stratégie ou déploient les campagnes de leurs clients, les talents testent, développent et challengent les dernières technologies et participent à faire bouger les lignes du secteur des agences média pour que nos métiers évoluent constamment. Publicis Media, c’est avant tout une aventure humaine, un collectif soudé , des projets avant-gardistes pour développer toujours plus la montée en compétences de ses talents et une ambiance de travail qui ne connaît pas l’ennui.
