New addition in Vienna: Gábor is joining our team to support the Hungarian market
Isten hozott, Gábor – a warm welcome to the team! 🇭🇺⚽️
We are delighted to welcome Gábor Markus as a new member of our team at our Vienna office. As Product & Sales Manager for the Hungarian market, he will be driving forward the expansion of our activities in Hungary, securing new clubs and further strengthening existing relationships.
Before he moves fully into the Hungarian market, Gábor will spend his first six months with our team in Vienna. His initial focus there will be on getting to know the processes and products, diving straight into day-to-day operations and experiencing the SOCCA GROUP in all its facets.
Gábor is ideally suited to his new role. He has first-hand knowledge of both Hungarian and Austrian football and has a strong network in both countries. His own footballing CV is also impressive: as a player, he won the league title twice and was top scorer whilst at the Austria Vienna academy, represented the Hungarian youth national team, and later celebrated promotion to the Hungarian top flight as assistant manager with ETO FC Győr.
Gábor, we’re delighted to have you on board! We’re really looking forward to working with you. 😊
