Through an integrated multi-channel digital marketing approach, we have helped our clients across many industries recognize quick and extremely impressive results.

About the Opportunity:

The Director of Business Development, Marketplaces is responsible for finding and closing new clients for our Amazon and marketplace practice. This is a senior, client-facing new business role led through an Amazon-first lens, with Walmart, Target+, and other marketplaces as expansion layers. You will build the pipeline, lead the pitch, shape the proposal, and close the deal. You are not selling a single channel; you are selling the integrated way we run Amazon advertising, DSP, catalog, and marketplace strategy together, and you need the command to navigate what we can and cannot do in a client conversation.

What You'll Do:

Pipeline & Business Development

• Reach out to an extensive contact list across e-commerce brands and PE-backed portfolio companies to introduce eAccountable's Amazon and marketplace offering

• Proactively prospect in our core verticals, including health and beauty, home and outdoor, pet, and consumer packaged goods

• Build and manage a pipeline through warm outreach, networking, and referrals

• Drive marketplace-led opportunities, including standalone Amazon engagements and multi-marketplace expansion programs across Walmart, Target+, and TikTok Shop

Selling Integrated Programs

• Position and sell integrated programs spanning advertising, DSP, catalog and content, and market intelligence, with a strong emphasis on profitability, share of voice, and ROAS

• Conduct discovery calls and present tailored proposals that translate client goals, including share growth, profitability, and new marketplace launches, into integrated strategies

• Collaborate internally on pitch decks and RFP responses, partnering with our channel leads on advertising, DSP, and catalog for scope and pricing, then handing off cleanly to delivery

Industry Presence & Thought Leadership

• Attend Amazon and marketplace industry events and identify thought leadership opportunities that build our presence in Amazon advertising, DSP, and marketplace strategy
• Represent eAccountable at key industry conferences, leveraging existing relationships and actively building new ones to expand our footprint in the Amazon seller and agency community

What You Bring:

Experience & Sales Track Record

• 5+ years of business development, sales, or partnerships experience in a digital marketing or agency setting
• A proven track record of closing net-new business against sales targets
• Experience selling to CMOs and VPs of Marketing at e-commerce, DTC, and retail brands
• Familiarity with Sandler, Challenger, or a similar sales methodology is a plus

Marketplace & Platform Expertise

• Strong expertise in Amazon marketplace fundamentals, including Seller Central and Vendor Central models, advertising structures such as Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, and Sponsored Display, and DSP

• Deep familiarity with Amazon ecosystem tools and platforms including Jungle Scout, Intentwise, Helium 10, and Pacvue, with a clear understanding of the nuances of each

• Experience with Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) and how attribution and audience insight extend beyond last-click advertising

Marketplace Expansion & Retail Media Knowledge

• The ability to articulate the difference between Seller Central and Vendor Central models, and to position each correctly for a prospect's goals

• Familiarity with adjacent marketplaces and retail media networks, including Walmart Connect, Target+, and TikTok Shop

• An understanding of catalog, content, and creative strategy and their role in driving conversion and organic ranking

• A working understanding of how DSP and off-Amazon media extend and amplify on-platform advertising

An Established Presence in the Amazon & Marketplace Industry

• Willingness to travel 30-50% for industry events and client meetings as needed

• You don't just attend Amazon industry events; you know the room. You walk into Prosper Show, Billion Dollar Seller Summit, or similar events with a full dance card and leave with new ones

• A deep rolodex of contacts across agencies, brands, and marketplace platform partners that you can activate immediately for warm introductions and referrals

• A reputation in the Amazon and marketplace community that opens doors before the first call is booked

Sales Approach

• Strong consultative, relationship-first selling skills and a true hunter mindset
• The judgment to qualify hard and walk away when the fit is wrong
• Enough technical depth to speak with authority to clients and prospects and to scope accurately with our delivery teams. This is not a hands-on execution role, but you need to know the work

What We Offer:

• Competitive compensation package: Base salary $100,000-$125,000 + variable compensation; OTE $140,000-$190,000
• Flexible vacation policy – take the time you need to recharge
