If you know how to sell premium media placements and speak crypto fluently - we want you.

  • Strong client relationship skills and a hunter mentality
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
  • Bonus if you have:
  • Experience selling across multiple media formats (display, audio, events, content syndication)

What Success Looks Like

After 3-6 months in this role, you will have:

  • Own a pipeline of mid-market sponsorship and advertising opportunities
  • Prospect, pitch, and close deals across display ads, podcasts, newsletters, events, and custom programs
  • Build strong relationships with marketing leaders, growth teams, and brand managers across crypto and fintech
  • Collaborate with our Media, Research, and Events teams to package sponsorship solutions that drive real value
  • Meet and exceed monthly and quarterly sales quotas
  • Stay ahead of crypto market trends, key players, and marketing budgets shifts
