Our team is fun.

Everyone here is high-energy and engaging—if you want this role, you’re a schmoozer, and people are drawn to you.

You’ll be getting on calls with CEOs of SMBs and talking through their needs.

Should they hire a Social Media Manager? Do they actually need a Paid Ads Expert? Or maybe a Shopify Developer instead? Maybe they just really need a new a good Project Manager,.

You'll need to be incredibly familiar with marketing.

You should know what these are: Shopify / HubSpot / Google Ads / E-Commerce / SEO.

Responsibilities:

• Show up to meetings. Make people fall in love with you. Get them to sign engagement letters.

• Work closely with our Senior Account Exec, our Sales Manager, and our CEO to figure out process changes.

• Talk through strategies with clients.

• Debate with clients on what their correct hiring decisions should be.

• Win those debates.

Requirements:

• A minimum of 2 years of marketing experience

• A minimum of 2 years as an Account Executive / Account Manager

• In-depth marketing knowledge. You will not get this job without this knowledge. We will quiz you.

• Exceptional communication skills, enabling you to effectively convey ideas, address client needs, and close deals.

• Willingness to work in line with US East Coast hours to ensure seamless collaboration with our team and clients. 9 am - 6 pm EST

• You should be good enough at Google Sheets. Like...you know a few formulas off the top of your head.

• You speak quickly. This is a fast-moving team. You'll find no better match if you’re looking for that.
