Job Description

From viral creator campaigns to large-scale brand experiences in Dallas, 101Media is behind some of the biggest city accounts (@dallasites101, @fortworthians101, @austinites101, @sanantonians101). We’re looking for a Director of Partnerships who genuinely enjoys building relationships and knows how to turn a good connection into something meaningful for both sides.

This isn’t a sit-behind-a-desk kind of role. It’s for someone who likes being out in the world—meeting people, spotting opportunities, and making things happen. You’ll represent 101Media, connect brands to our platforms and creative work, and lead a team that’s working toward some pretty ambitious goals.

Be the champion of the brand

Show up to events, media opportunities, and community moments across Texas. Build real relationships that naturally turn into partnerships over time.

Lead the team

Work closely with our Sales Specialists to help them think bigger, close stronger deals, and keep improving. This is less about managing and more about coaching and raising the bar.

Own key partnerships

You’ll have your own portfolio of partners, putting together thoughtful, customized proposals—from event sponsorships to larger integrated campaigns.

Connect the dots internally

Partner with our Marketing and Community teams to make sure what we’re selling is aligned with what we’re delivering—and that it actually lands well.

What we’re looking for:

Someone who’s spent time in partnerships, media, or agency work and understands how this world moves.

  • You’re naturally curious, good with people, and comfortable figuring things out as you go.
  • You know Texas—or at least how to quickly get a feel for different markets and what makes them tick.
  • You’re not waiting on perfect instructions. You’re someone who can build while doing.
  • You’re organized enough to manage your pipeline and team (HubSpot, Monday, etc.), but not so rigid that you miss creative opportunities.
  • You care about doing good work, being transparent, continuing to grow, and celebrating wins along the way.

Why this role is fun:

There’s a lot of room here. You’ll have visibility, autonomy, and the ability to shape how partnerships grow across our markets. If you’re motivated by performance, there’s also a strong upside tied to what you build. And probably most importantly...you’ll be in the middle of a lot of the action across Texas!
