(Senior) VP of Brand Partnerships
About The Position
We are looking for a high-performing enterprise seller to join our team during a pivotal period of growth. In this role, you will work directly with brands generating $500M+ in revenue, gaining a deep understanding of their marketing needs and challenges. You will build relationships, educate prospects on how they can drive success using both the Aspire platform and our managed services, and ultimately close high-impact deals. The ideal candidate is a self-starter with a proven track record of building a book of business and managing the full sales cycle. More than anything, we are looking for a dynamic closer who can get in the room with senior marketing executives, earn their confidence, and inspire them with our vision for where creator marketing is headed. This is a genuine opportunity to come in as the most senior salesperson at the company and make it your own. If it is not an existing account, it is yours to pursue (no territories or ceilings). Come make an impact on our next chapter of business!
