The Company

Workweek is reimagining how business leaders create, connect, and collaborate.

Our Approach

At Workweek, we’re solving what we call the knowledge expert paradox. It’s the idea that the more experienced a business leader becomes, the harder it is to access their knowledge.

We’re fixing that by building Operator Networks, professional communities where every member is a verified business leader in their field. These are spaces built for real conversations, content that’s actually helpful, and fun events. All for people who actually do the work.

Inside each community, members can connect with each other, swap ideas, talk shop, or create their own newsletters and podcasts. It’s how we’re reimagining what a social network can be: not built for attention, but for expertise.

Ultimately, we’re solving the paradox at scale by creating the tools, environment, and incentives for business leaders to share what they know. And we do it all for free.

We make money through our Partner Platform, a B2B ad platform that helps marketers invest, attribute, and scale their dollars more effectively. Think of it like if Facebook Business Manager was built for real B2B sales cycles.

The Role

Workweek is looking for a Brand Partner to help us bring the future of B2B media to life by building truly consultative partnerships with both brands and agencies.

We're looking for a relentlessly motivated and proven seller who loves to get creative with branded and custom partnerships. This person will sell across a variety of B2B content verticals and media channels. This person will need to both leverage existing agency and brand contacts, as well as use cold-outreach, to introduce Workweek to a wide array of brands and advertisers.

This person will have the opportunity to build deep, long-lasting relationships that can grow greatly over time. Given this, you will need to work tirelessly to understand the marketing goals of our partners, then develop creative, tailored campaigns that both meet those goals without sacrificing the authenticity of the Workweek brand.

Ideally, this person prioritizes action over perfection and loves working towards (and beating) revenue goals. Above all, we're looking for a great teammate who's excited to use their sales and partnership skills towards accomplishing our mission — and wants to have a lot of fun doing it.
