About Ranker

Ranker is a leading digital media company powered by one thing most brands

don’t

have: real audience data at massive scale.

With 68M+ social followers and 30B+ votes cast, our proprietary Ranker Insights platform turns authentic consumer behavior into actionable intelligence, helping brands understand what audiences actually care about.

We’re launching a new slate of data-backed content and creator partnership products, and we’re looking for a sales leader to help bring them to market.

The Role

We’re hiring a Creator Partnerships Sales Lead to drive revenue across the creator, brand, and digital media ecosystem. This role lives at the intersection of content, creators, brands, and data.

You’ll own the full partnership lifecycle—from sourcing and pitching to negotiating and closing, while collaborating closely with branded content, business development, and insights teams.

This is a role for someone who knows how to sell ideas, partnerships, and outcomes, not just impressions.

What You’ll Do

  • Pitch and close revenue-generating creator and branded content partnerships with brands, agencies, and creator networks

  • Leverage your existing relationships to unlock new business and strategic partnerships

  • Collaborate with internal teams to shape and refine video and social products based on market feedback

  • Build and evolve go-to-market materials that showcase Ranker Insights, audience data, and social scale

  • Identify and negotiate white-label, co-branded, and licensing deals with creators and media partners

  • Stay ahead of creator economy trends and translate them into actionable revenue opportunities

You’re a Strong Fit If You:

  • Already have relationships with brands, agencies, creators, or media partners

  • Have a proven track record of closing deals and driving revenue

  • Understand how to sell content, partnerships, and creative solutions (not just CPMs)

  • Are fluent in creator economy models, branded content, social monetization, and digital media KPIs

  • Love creative packaging and turning ideas into must-buy opportunities

  • Are self-directed, competitive, and motivated by upside

Qualifications

  • 3–5+ years of experience in digital media sales, branded content, partnerships, or the creator economy

  • Demonstrated success closing sponsorships or partnership deals

  • Strong understanding of platforms including YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and emerging channels

  • Excellent pitching and storytelling skills paired with a strong business mindset

Bonus Points

  • Experience selling data-backed or insights-driven products
  • Background at a social platform, influencer agency, or creator network

Compensation

This is a growth-focused role with real upside.

  • Base Salary: $75,000–$90,000

  • Commission: Generous, performance-based

Total Compensation: Top performers can realistically 2–3x their base salary
