Job Summary

Own the full sales cycle from prospecting to closed revenue, leading deals end to end with cross‑functional collaboration and a strong market POV.

  • Build and manage pipeline across multiple inbound and outbound paths.
  • Lead commercial conversations, tailor solutions, and assemble the right team and tech into a compelling scope and price.
  • Represent Stellar in person at events and meetings, shaping market feedback.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Close. This is the heart of the job. You'll run deals end to end — the commercial conversation, the objections, the negotiation, the number.
  • Build pipeline alongside what we send you. You'll get real support: inbound, marketing, events, referrals, and warm paths across ten agency brands. The best person for this role will be a great collaborator with our marketing team, bringing back market feedback and ideas. They'll also build named target lists, work their network, and go get the deals nobody handed them.
  • Sell outcomes, across the network. You're not selling a service line. You're selling against a client's goal, free to pull from anywhere within Stellar to meet it.
  • Package the answer. Take a messy commercial problem and assemble the right team and the right tech into a scope, a story, and a price.
  • Get our experts in the room. You don't sell alone. You create the moments — working sessions, audits, diagnostics — where our operators can help you sell the vision.
  • Be in market. This job happens in rooms with people in them: conferences, dinners, roundtables, client cities. You'll be out there and visible.
  • Carry a POV. Write it, say it, stand behind it. You're the front of Stellar in rooms where nobody has heard of us yet.
  • Own the number. Pipeline, conversion, closed revenue.

Requirements

  • You've sold marketing services and you've closed. A track record or origination closed deals for services, tech-enabled offerings, and complex solutions.
  • You can generate as well as convert. You've built pipeline from nothing before and you're not precious about how.
  • Fearless. You're comfortable calling high, introducing yourself to a room, asking the awkward commercial question, and naming a number without flinching.
  • A strategist and packager. You're good at the middle part — hearing a business problem and shaping the solution, rather than reading a capabilities deck out loud.
  • Fluent enough to be dangerous. Paid, SEO, creative, AI-enabled marketing — you don't need to be the practitioner, but you can hold your own with an operator and you know when to bring the experts in.
  • A builder, not a runner-of-playbooks. Ambiguity is the opportunity, not the obstacle. Comfortable being the front. You carry Stellar's point of view — confident, human — into every room.
