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
