We’re partnering with a private, invitation-only community of founders, investors, and senior operators built on long-term relationships and trust. The platform brings its members together through a year-round calendar of curated, high-touch gatherings across major US markets, anchored by a flagship annual summit. This exciting startup was founded by a seasoned entrepreneur and has grown organically through referrals and word of mouth, with a strong emphasis on quality over scale and high-touch experiences over mass events. The culture is highly collaborative and relationship-driven, with a long-term focus on building something that lasts. This position is on-site 4 days a week (Mon-Thurs) in New York.
The Role This is an opportunity to join as a Sales & Partnerships Lead, working closely with senior commercial leadership to drive six-figure sponsorship and partnership revenue. The role is ideal for someone with experience selling corporate sponsorships or partnerships in the events, conference, or ecosystem-driven space, who enjoys relationship-led selling and bespoke deal design.
You’ll own your accounts end to end, with operational and cross-functional support in place so you can focus on strategy, relationship building, and closing.

Build and manage a pipeline of senior-level prospects, including CMOs, Heads of Partnerships, and commercial decision-makers
Leverage existing relationships while identifying and developing new sponsorship opportunities
Collaborate with sales leadership to shape annual sponsorship strategy
Design creative, customized activations aligned with sponsor goals
Represent the organization at high-profile events, dinners, and industry gatherings
Partner closely with internal sales, partnerships, marketing, and operations teams to deliver on commitments and sponsor ROI
What We’re Looking For
At least 3 years of experience selling sponsorships, partnerships, or business development within conferences, events, or adjacent ecosystems
A proven track record of closing low six-figure or larger deals
Comfort operating in a lean, fast-moving environment with high ownership
Strong relationship-building skills and executive presence
Ability to manage deals from strategy through close with minimal oversight
Backgrounds in tech, venture, finance, or founder-facing ecosystems are a plus
Why This Role
Ground-floor opportunity with clear ownership, visibility and impact
Work at the center of the venture and private markets ecosystem
Partner with global brands, top founders, and senior investors
