Patreon is a media and community platform where creators give their biggest fans access to exclusive work and experiences. Over 300k creators are cultivating fandoms and building their businesses each month. Creators can offer free memberships to fans looking to explore more of their work, paid memberships to give access to exclusive media and community, or sell directly to fans with Shops.

Ultimately our goal is simple: fund the creative class. And we're leaders in that space, with:

• 8B+ earned since Patreon's inception

• 30M free new memberships in the first year of launching that option, and

• 10M fans paying each month for exclusive access to creators' work and community.

We're continuing to invest heavily in building the best creator products with the best team in the creator economy and are looking for an Acquisition Manager, Emerging Markets to support our mission

This role is based in Los Angeles, New York or San Francisco and open to those who are able to be in-office 2 days per week on a hybrid work model.

• Develop & introduce emerging product pitches to a select segment of the top of the market

• Close top of market accounts within target segment & contract case studies for emerging products

• Manage & report on pipeline & strategic market observations to key product developers and cross-functional partners

About You

• You possess 6-8 years of sales, partnerships, and dealmaking experience at a membership platform, social media platform, or creator technology platform

• You have a strong grasp on ‘creator economy’ market trends & emerging opportunities

• You have a keen eye for assessing product market fit & predicting digital conversion
