This is a builders seat: as VP, Business Development, youll own Telescopes growth strategy and revenue performance across the vertical, as the first dedicated hire in this space. Youre not inheriting a playbook, youre writing it. Youll own both the selling and the building, personally closing the deals that matter while standing up the team and pipeline that turn early wins into a scaled, repeatable business. If you want a senior sales leadership role where the ceiling is set by you, not by someone elses org chart, this is it.
Responsibilities:
Lead from the front: prospect, pitch, and close senior relationships with experiential agencies and brand-side marketing leaders, personally.
Own the revenue strategy, forecast, and execution for the entire Brands and Agencies vertical.
Build the experiential vertical from the ground up, backed by the wider BD org, and grow a professional, agency-focused sales team around you as you scale.
Shape positioning, packaging, and pricing alongside Product and Marketing.
Represent Telescope at the senior level, industry events, strategic partnerships, and the pitches that matter most.
Report to the executive team on pipeline, forecast, and market intelligence with real rigor.
Why Telescope
A proven product, blue-chip client credentials, and a clear runway into a substantial adjacent market.
Startup energy and autonomy within your vertical, backed by the pedigree and resources of a business with 25 years in the market, and now the added weight of a public company behind you.
The rare chance to build a new vertical from an early-success foundation, not from zero, and not from someone elses ceiling.
Base salary: $185,000-$225,000, plus uncapped commission of 7-10% of revenue generated, on-target earnings around $300,000, with real, uncapped upside for anyone who outperforms. If youre used to hitting your number, theres no ceiling here stopping you from beating it.
A senior seat at the table, shaping what this vertical becomes next.
