Account Executive, Strategic Partnerships — Creators
About Agentio
Agentio enables marketers to buy creator led ads as easily and scalably as Meta or Google ads—automating sourcing, pricing, contracting, delivery, and measurement with AI—so work that took months now happens in minutes.
We’re on a mission to transform a $800B digital ad ecosystem by shifting digital ad spend into the hands of creators. That means better outcomes for marketers and enabling creators to live off their work—finally being paid in proportion to the value they create. That shift is accelerating: Unilever’s CEO has said the company will move roughly half of its ad budget into social and creators—Unilever is among the world’s largest advertisers, spending around $9–10B annually. As these dollars move, they need performance-grade pipes; Agentio is how those dollars flow to creators with the speed, control, and measurement marketers expect. We enable brands like Uber, DoorDash, and Bombas to run creator campaigns with the same rigor, control, and accountability as their core performance channels.
Agentio has raised $56M to date at a $340M valuation, including a recent Series B led by Forerunner, which followed our Series A within a calendar year. Our investors also include Benchmark, Craft, and AlleyCorp. Agentio has been named to Forbes’ Next Billion Dollar Startups, 2025, and our platform is already used and loved by the world’s leading marketers and creators. We are just getting started!
About the Role
Join the core team building the supply side of the advertising industry's future. As an Account Executive on our Creator Partnerships team, you'll build direct relationships with the world's most influential creators and the leadership teams at top management firms - the CEOs, founders, and executives representing talent with audiences in the millions.
This is a high-impact, high-velocity sales role where you'll be closing partnerships worth hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in potential deal flow. You'll own revenue and onboarding targets for creator acquisition and activation, establishing the net-new personal relationships that form the foundation of our marketplace. Your pipeline management and relationship-building skills will create direct day-to-day impact on our supply growth.
This role is perfect for ambitious go-to-market professionals and leaders who want to combine the rigor of quota-carrying sales with the prestige of working alongside some of the biggest names in media and entertainment.

Drive high-volume outreach: Execute multichannel outreach strategies (email, LinkedIn, client entertainment, referrals) to build and nurture your pipeline
Be a market expert: Deeply understand the creator economy landscape, competitive dynamics, and what drives creator and management firm decision-making. Understand creator economics, management structures and how to position Agentio's value proposition to different stakeholders within a creator’s media business
Heavily influence the product we’re building for creators and managers: Work closely with our product and marketing team to improve the experience and product adoption for creators and their teams
Scale what works: As we grow, high performers will have opportunities to build and lead teams, expand into new verticals, new platforms (e.g. IG & TikTok) or take on strategic growth initiatives.
What We're Looking For
Required
4+ years of quota-carrying sales experience at a high-growth startup (SaaS, marketplace, tech, creator economy or similar)
Proven track record of meeting or exceeding aggressive sales targets and managing large pipelines
Exceptional relationship builder: You know how to open doors, build trust quickly, and maintain long-term partnerships
Comfortable with ambiguity: You thrive in fast-moving startup environments where processes are being built in real-time
Self-starter mentality: You don't need to be told what to do - you identify opportunities and go after them
Eagerness to disrupt and make a change: we’re building something that has never been done before - we want team members who are excited about building the tools and strategies that categorically change the way creators and brands work together
AI-native mindset: Passionate about leveraging AI tools to optimize workflows, personalize outreach, accelerate pipeline management, and unlock efficiency gains - you see AI as a competitive advantage, not a threat
Nice to Have, Not Essential
Relationships with the creator economy, influencer marketing, or digital media landscape
Direct experience selling into or working with management firms, agencies, or media companies
SDR/BDR background is a strong advantage - ****we value the hustle, grit, and process discipline that comes from high-volume prospecting roles
